House lawmakers look into NRC's "chilled work environment"

House lawmakers look into NRC's "chilled work environment"
Rep. Fred Upton, R-Mich., and other lawmakers seek to learn whether Nuclear Regulatory Commission Chairman Gregory Jaczko's actions have created a "chilled work environment" at the agency. The NRC "appears to lack its own guidance for assessing and correcting a chilled work environment, a gap that has, in our view, facilitated a pattern of behavior we find unacceptable at an agency that is responsible for identifying and preventing similar behavior by its licensees," according to a letter signed by Upton and 22 other lawmakers.
