Summary

The U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC) is requesting public comments on proposed revisions to its Enforcement Policy (the Policy). The NRC is proposing to revise Section 4.1, "Considerations in Determining Enforcement Actions Involving Individuals," of the Policy to indicate that the NRC typically will not consider Fitness- for-Duty (FFD) Drug and Alcohol (D&A) related violations for enforcement unless the licensee's FFD program has apparent deficiencies.

The agency’s own summary, as published.
