Global Laser Enrichment, LLC; Paducah Laser Enrichment Facility; Final Environmental Impact Statement

The U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC) has issued a final environmental impact statement (EIS) regarding a license application from Global Laser Enrichment, LLC (GLE) to construct and operate the Paducah Laser Enrichment Facility. The EIS evaluates the environmental impacts of the proposed action of issuing a license that would authorize GLE to construct and operate a uranium enrichment facility on a 322-acre site located in McCracken County, Kentucky, approximately 5 miles west of Paducah.

Biweekly Notice; Applications and Amendments to Facility Operating Licenses and Combined Licenses Involving No Significant Hazards Considerations

Pursuant to section 189a.(2) of the Atomic Energy Act of 1954, as amended (the Act), the U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC) is publishing this regular biweekly notice. The Act requires the Commission to publish notice of any amendments issued, or proposed to be issued, and grants the Commission the authority to issue and make immediately effective any amendment to an operating license or combined license, as applicable, upon a determination by the Commission that such amendment involves no significant hazards consideration (NSHC), notwithstanding the pendency before the Commission of a request for a hearing from any person.

The Nuclear Regulatory Commission published a rule amending regulations to leverage prior Department of Energy or Department of War reactor authorizations into NRC licensing reviews.

RuleNuclear Regulatory Commission

NRC Reviews of Reactor Designs Previously Authorized by U.S. Department of Energy or Department of War

The U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC) is amending its regulations to facilitate direct leveraging of prior U.S. Department of Energy or Department of War authorizations of demonstration reactors into the NRC's licensing reviews of commercial reactor facility applications that reference those designs. This rulemaking improves NRC licensing review efficiency, where applicable, by explicitly establishing by regulation an additional means for reactor applicants to demonstrate the safety functions of their reactor designs, thereby contributing to the safe and secure use and deployment of civilian nuclear energy technologies.

Proposed RuleNuclear Regulatory Commission

Irradiated Fuel Reprocessing Plants

The U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC) has received a petition for rulemaking (PRM) from Howard L. Hall, Ph.D., dated August 14, 2026, requesting that the NRC remove the exclusion of irradiated fuel reprocessing plants and establish material control and accounting requirements appropriate to that facility class. The petition was docketed by the NRC on September 14, 2026, and has been assigned Docket No. PRM-74-1. The NRC is examining the issues raised in PRM-74-1 to determine whether they should be considered in rulemaking. The NRC is requesting public comment on this petition at this time.

Draft NUREG: Report on Waste Burial Charges: Changes in Decommissioning Waste Disposal Costs at Low-Level Waste Burial Facilities

The U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC) is issuing for public comment a draft report entitled, NUREG-1307, Revision 21, "Report on Waste Burial Charges: Changes in Decommissioning Waste Disposal Costs at Low-Level Waste Burial Facilities." This report, which is revised periodically, explains the formula acceptable to the NRC for determining the minimum decommissioning fund requirements for nuclear power reactor licensees, as required by NRC regulations. Specifically, this report provides the adjustment factor and updates the values for the labor, energy, and waste burial escalation factors of the minimum formula.

Palisades Energy, LLC; Palisades Nuclear Plant; License Amendment

The U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC, the Commission) has issued an amendment under exigent circumstances to Renewed Facility Operating License (RFOL) No. DPR-20, issued to Palisades Energy, LLC (the licensee), for operation of the Palisades Nuclear Plant (Palisades, PNP). The amendment modifies the PNP Updated Final Safety Analysis Report (UFSAR) Section 9.11, "Fuel Handling and Storage Systems," and Section 14.19, "Fuel Handling Accident," on a one-time basis, to facilitate transport of a fuel assembly designated DD41 from the reactor to the spent fuel pool (SFP) utilizing different plant equipment and following a different travel path than is described in the UFSAR.
