The Trump administration has revised the federal regulations governing nuclear safety. According to reports, these changes were made without public notice or input.

The Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC) is responsible for enforcing and implementing nuclear safety standards in the United States. The NRC’s website indicates that it will be revising its regulations to align with new guidance from the Department of Energy.

In addition, a recent report by the National Transportation Safety Board (NTSB) has been released regarding an incident involving a plane crash in Washington D.C. The NTSB is an independent agency responsible for investigating transportation accidents and identifying safety recommendations.

The Trump administration’s revisions to nuclear safety regulations have not yet been made public, although they are expected to be announced soon.
