The U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC) is seeking public comments on a proposed information collection titled "Human Performance Test Facility." This new collection aims to address research gaps in human performance and reliability within the nuclear sector, focusing on cognitive and physical elements related to safe control room operations and state-of-the-art technology. The NRC is asking for feedback on whether the information collection is necessary, the accuracy of the burden estimate, and ways to enhance and minimize the burden of the information. Comments are requested by February 18, 2025.
Simple Explanation
The U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission wants to hear from people about a new project that will gather information to help make nuclear power safer by studying how people do their jobs in control rooms. They're asking if this study is important, if it will take up too much time, and how they can make it easier to complete.
