Safeguards (ACRS)

Atomic Energy Act (42 U.S.C. 2039, 2232(b)), the Advisory Committee on
Reactor Safeguards (ACRS) will hold meetings on November 20, 2025. In
addition, the ACRS is implementing Section 4.(b) of Executive Order

Commission,'' dated May 23, 2025, which states, in part, that the

directed by the Commission in accordance with Sections 29 and 182b of
the Atomic Energy Act.
The Committee will be conducting meetings that will include some
Members being physically present at the headquarters of the U.S.
