The Nuclear Regulatory Commission is increasing its social media presence with its new Instagram page, the agency announced. The "nrcgov” account on the popular site will post photos, short videos, and graphics to add “a more creative approach to information regarding the NRC’s mission, with a focus on the skilled and diverse employees who carry it out.”

Social media presence: NRC chair Christopher T. Hanson said, “Social media augments our news releases, website, and other means we use to provide timely and transparent communications.” The commission had previously set up pages on Facebook, Twitter, YouTube, LinkedIn, and Flickr. All of these pages can be accessed via the icons on the NRC’s homepage.
