Proposed Rule

Fee Schedules; Fee Recovery for Fiscal Year 2025

Proposed rule.

📖 Research Context From Federal Register API

Summary:

The U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC) is proposing to amend the licensing, inspection, special project, and annual fees charged to its applicants and licensees. The proposed amendments are necessary to comply with the Nuclear Energy Innovation and Modernization Act, which requires the NRC to recover, to the maximum extent practicable, approximately 100 percent of its annual budget less certain amounts excluded from this fee recovery requirement. In addition, the NRC is proposing amendments to implement a reduced hourly rate for advanced nuclear reactor applicants and pre-applicants for certain activities as required by the Accelerating Deployment of Versatile, Advanced Nuclear for Clean Energy Act of 2024.

Key Dates
Citation: 90 FR 9848
Submit comments by March 21, 2025. Comments received after this date will be considered if it is practical to do so, but the NRC is able to ensure consideration of only comments received before this date. Because the Nuclear Energy Innovation and Modernization Act requires the NRC to collect fees for fiscal year 2025 by September 30, 2025, the NRC must finalize any revisions to its fee schedules promptly, and thus is unable to grant any extension request of the comment period.
