American Nuclear Society on the firing of NRC Commissioner Hanson
Washington, D.C. — The American Nuclear Society (ANS) issued the following statement:
"A competent, effective, and fully staffed U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission is essential to the rapid deployment of new reactors and advanced technologies. The arbitrary removal of commissioners without due cause creates regulatory uncertainty that threatens to delay America’s nuclear energy expansion."
