NRC guidelines won’t stifle innovation
At the recent RIC conference, Stephen Burns stated that current NRC
guidelines won’t stifle innovation during the implementation of new
advanced reactor technologies – a contentious issue within the industry.
To demonstrate why they believe their licensing roadmap will help rather than hinder advanced reactor progress, the NRC will share an exclusive presentation on the topic at the International SMR and Advanced Reactor Summit (14-15 April, Atlanta GA).
I know you missed the deadline for discounted passes to the summit – However, I’ve managed to keep a few aside for those that missed the cut off – If you’re interested you can secure yours here using discount code EXT200
Take a look at who you’ll join at the Summit:
