    The Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC) has renewed the charter for the Licensing Support Network Advisory Review Panel (LSNARP) until December 16, 2026. The panel provides guidance on managing electronic documents related to the licensing of a nuclear waste disposal site at Yucca Mountain. Although the Licensing Support Network was shut down in 2011, its documents are still available through the NRC and continue to be relevant for affected stakeholders, including federal agencies and regional organizations. The renewal is deemed necessary by the NRC to fulfill its legal duties.

Even though a special computer system for this was turned off a while ago, the papers are still important, and the team helps make sure everything is handled right.
