NRC public meetings shed light on proposed rules
In the span of just over a week in late June and early July, the Nuclear Regulatory Commission published three proposed rules on modernizing security requirements, low-level radioactive waste disposal requirements, and fuel cycle and materials licensing.
This week, NRC staff led separate virtual public information meetings on each of the proposed rules, providing details to the public on what each one would change.
