NRC proposes changes to its rules on nuclear materials
In response to Executive Order 14300, “Ordering the Reform of the Nuclear Regulatory Commission,” the NRC is proposing sweeping changes to its rules governing the use of nuclear materials that are widely used in industry, medicine, and research. The changes would amend NRC regulations for the licensing of nuclear byproduct material, some source material, and some special nuclear material.
As published in the May 18 Federal Register, the NRC is seeking public comment on this proposed rule and draft interim guidance until July 2.
The ANS Scholarship Policy and Coordination Committee have announced all the scholarship recipients for the 2026-2027 academic year. This year we have awarded 101 scholarships totaling $231,500 to students pursuing degrees in nuclear science and technology.
