This inventory includes information about service contracts worth $150,000 or more, covering details such as the services purchased, the role they play in achieving objectives, and financial specifics. The purpose of the inventory analysis is to assess whether contract labor is being used effectively and whether the balance between federal employees and contractors is appropriate. These inventories are part of a broader effort to manage and transparently report on government service contracts.

    The U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC) is proposing to change the fees it charges to licensees for the fiscal year 2021 in order to comply with the Nuclear Energy Innovation and Modernization Act (NEIMA). These changes will include amending various fees such as licensing, inspection, and annual fees to help the NRC recover nearly 100% of its annual budget. Additionally, the NRC plans to introduce improvements to the invoicing process and establish a new procedure for disputing errors in service fee invoices. The public is invited to comment on the proposal by March 24, 2021.

    Simple Explanation

    The U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission wants to change the fees they charge to recover almost all their costs, as required by a new law. They also want to make it easier for people to talk to them if they think there's a mistake with their bill.

    The U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC) approved exemptions for PSEG Nuclear, LLC, allowing it to transfer earnings from nuclear decommissioning trust funds into specific subaccounts without prior notification. These exemptions pertain to funds at Hope Creek Generating Station, Salem Generating Station, and Peach Bottom Atomic Power Station, and are intended for activities that don't strictly fall under "decommissioning" as defined by existing regulations. The NRC confirmed these changes will not jeopardize the safe decommissioning of the reactors and concluded there are no significant environmental impacts from this decision. The exemptions are immediately effective and will expire once each reactor permanently ceases operations and removes nuclear fuel.

    Simple Explanation

    PSEG Nuclear got permission to move some money around in special bank accounts for cleaning up their power plants without telling the boss each time, as long as it doesn't mess up important cleanup work. The boss checked and said this change is safe, like moving allowance money to a piggy bank for different toys without asking mom each time.
