    The U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC) is considering an amendment to the operating license of the Monticello Nuclear Generating Plant in Minnesota. The proposed amendment seeks to update the plant's Emergency Action Level (EAL) Scheme. This change is requested urgently to avoid unnecessary emergency declarations due to fluctuating river levels that affected the plant earlier. The public can submit comments on this amendment by March 6, 2025, and request a hearing by April 21, 2025.

    Simple Explanation

    The government is thinking about changing the safety rules for a nuclear plant in Minnesota to make sure it doesn't have to call an emergency for something small, like changes in the river nearby. People can say what they think about this change until March 6, 2025, and they can also ask to have a meeting about it by April 21, 2025.
