Nuclear Regulatory Commission September 10, 2021 – Federal Register Recent Federal Regulation Documents

On July 9, 2021, the U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC) requested comments as part of its systematic review for how NRC programs, policies, and activities address environmental justice. Specifically, the NRC requested input on how the agency is addressing environmental justice, considering the agency's mission and statutory authority. The information will be used to inform the agency's assessment of how it addresses environmental justice. The public comment period was originally scheduled to close on August 23, 2021 and was extended to September 22, 2021. The NRC has decided to extend the public comment period to allow more time for members of the public to develop and submit their comments.
