Nuclear License Updates Proceed Under the No-Hazards Consideration

## Summary

The Nuclear Regulatory Commission is sharing updates on changes to nuclear plant licenses that don’t pose safety risks. These updates affect plant operators and the public, with a chance to comment by December 10, 2026, and request hearings by January 11, 2027. No big costs or hazards are expected, just smooth improvements to keep things running safely.

## Abstract

Pursuant to section 189a.(2) of the Atomic Energy Act of 1954, as amended (the Act), the U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC) is publishing this regular biweekly notice. The Act requires the Commission to publish notice of any amendments issued, or proposed to be issued, and grants the Commission the authority to issue and make immediately effective any amendment to an operating license or combined license, as applicable, upon a determination by the Commission that such amendment involves no significant hazards consideration (NSHC), notwithstanding the pendency before the Commission of a request for a hearing from any person.
