Bill overview
The Nuclear Licensing Efficiency Act aims to speed up the process of permitting and licensing for nuclear facilities. It requires the Nuclear Regulatory Commission to streamline its review processes, including environmental impact statements and construction permit applications, and to establish specific timelines for these reviews. The bill also directs the Government Accountability Office to study the effects of eliminating mandatory hearings for uncontested applications and updates the composition and review procedures for the Advisory Committee on Reactor Safeguards. Finally, it places a limit on annual fees charged to nuclear fuel facilities.
