NRC reorganization aims to speed up licensing
The Nuclear Regulatory Commission announced yesterday that it is launching a significant reorganization to streamline decision making, consolidate functions, and align with national goals for more efficient licensing and deployment of new nuclear technology.
The changes are intended to meet the requirements outlined in President Trump’s Executive Order 14300, “Ordering Reform of the Nuclear Regulatory Commission,” and EO 14210, “Implementing the Department of Government Efficiency Workforce Optimization Initiative.”
For more than 65 years, the American Nuclear Society has provided a forum for advancing the state of applied nuclear science and technology. ANS meetings and conferences are the best way to keep current with the ever changing fields of nuclear science and technology.
In addition to two national conferences per year, ANS sponsors many topical meetings which concentrate on a particular technical area. Many of these meetings are planned many years in advance and are listed here. To have a conference listed here, it must be approved by the National Program Committee of the American Nuclear Society for inclusion on the ANS Calendar.
