What the agency says

The U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC) is correcting a final rule that was published in the Federal Register (FR) on March 30, 2026, regarding the amendment of the NRC's regulations to add a risk- informed, performance-based, and technology-inclusive regulatory framework for commercial nuclear plants in response to the Nuclear Energy Innovation and Modernization Act. This action is necessary to correct errors in the final rule and address conflicting amendatory instructions between this final rule and the "Categorical Exclusions From Environmental Review" final rule also published on March 30, 2026.
