    (c) Any existing license condition or technical specification that 
is more restrictive than a requirement in Sec. Sec. 20.1001-20.2402 
remains in force until there is a technical specification change, 
license amendment, or license renewal.
    (d) If a license condition or technical specification exempted a 
licensee from a requirement in the standards for protection against

standards for protection against radiation in effect prior to January 1,

renewal that modifies or removes this condition.
