Abstract

The Advisory Committee on Reactor Safeguards (ACRS) was established by section 29 of the Atomic Energy Act (AEA) of 1954, as amended. Its purpose is to provide advice to the Commission with regard to the hazards of proposed or existing reactor facilities, to review each application for a construction permit or operating license for certain facilities specified in the AEA, and such other duties as the Commission may request. The Nuclear Regulatory Commission has determined that renewal of the charter for the ACRS until December 2, 2026, is in the public interest in connection with the statutory responsibilities assigned to the ACRS.
