    The U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC) is considering an amendment to the operating license of the Callaway Plant, Unit No. 1, operated by Union Electric Company, also known as Ameren Missouri. The proposed amendment would allow the plant to operate with 52 control rods during its 28th cycle, instead of the currently required 53, due to a slowed drop time observed in one control rod. The NRC plans to issue the amendment if it determines that it does not involve significant hazards. The public can comment on this proposal or request a hearing by specific deadlines.

    Simple Explanation

    The people in charge of a big electricity plant think it's okay to use one less special stick (called a control rod) than normal to help make electricity safely. They want to let everyone know they plan to make this change and that people can say what they think about it or ask questions by a certain time.

    The Federal Communications Commission (FCC) issued a final rule to enhance the use of broadcast spectrum for new internet services, known as Broadcast internet services, which operate under the ATSC 3.0 standard. The rule allows noncommercial educational television stations (NCEs) to offer these services while lowering the fees for some services that are nonprofit and educational. The FCC aims to ensure that fee calculations are based on the revenue of the broadcaster rather than affiliated parties and to remove outdated references to analog television. Moreover, the rule clarifies that donations for limited services won't be treated as part of revenue, provided they align with typical donation incentives.

    Simple Explanation

    The FCC made new rules to help TV stations use special airwaves to offer internet services. They say TV stations can lower some costs if they use their airwaves for education and not for making money.
