Federal officials, advocates, and scientists testified at a hearing on legislation dealing with advanced nuclear reactors and modernization of nuclear energy infrastructure. The bill would establish new transparency and accountability measures to the Nuclear Regulatory Commission’s budget, fee programs, and regulation.
