Modernizing Security Requirements

Filed 2026-06-26Last update 2026-06-26

Summary

The U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC) is proposing to revise its regulations to modernize security and fitness-for-duty requirements to enhance efficiency, consistent with Executive Order 14300, "Ordering the Reform of the Nuclear Regulatory Commission." The proposed revisions are intended to reduce regulatory burden, where appropriate, while continuing to provide reasonable assurance that safety and security will be adequately maintained at NRC-licensed facilities.
