NRC to add new items to categorical exclusions list
The Nuclear Regulatory Commission has identified five categories of action to add to its list of categorical exclusions to reduce its documentation work under National Environmental Policy Act (NEPA) procedures.
These revisions are included in the final rule, “Categorical exclusions from environmental review,” which was published in the Federal Register on March 30. The final rule will become effective on April 29.

The Net-Zero Government Initiative set forth by the current administration invites national governments to achieve net-zero emissions by no later than 2050 from national government operations. As a result, the current US administration’s goal of meeting net-zero emissions in all federal infrastructure operations by 2050 has led to a push to deploy clean energy sources. The Department of Energy seeks to accelerate the deployment of advanced reactors through the Advanced Reactor Demonstration Program to increase clean energy options. This potential surge in deploying advanced reactors requires identifying any nuclear fuel and component supply chain issues. This panel will discuss how supply chain issues are being identified and resolved to support the deployment of advanced reactors to meet clean energy goals.
