The committee will consider: whether to recommend Jeffrey Baran for another five years as a commission on the Nuclear Regulatory Commission; whether to approve S.1111, the Accelerating Deployment of Versatile, Advanced Nuclear for Clean Energy Act of 2023. The bill would extend nuclear-industry indemnity, require a new nuclear waste report from the Department of Energy and mandate that the NRC periodically reassess how efficiently the agency grants licenses.
