April 13, 2022 The Honorable Nancy Pelosi Speaker of the House of Representatives Washington, DC 20515
Dear Madam Speaker:
On behalf of the U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC), I am forwarding the agencys Recommended Best Practices Report for Environmental Reviews and Authorizations (Best Practices Report). The Infrastructure Investment and Jobs Act (FAST-41) establishes a new requirement for each participating agency and lead agency to submit to Congress and the Director of the Office of Management and Budget a report assessing the performance of the agency in implementing FAST-41 best practices, with the report due each year by April 15th.
The enclosed Best Practice Report was developed in accordance with the fiscal year (FY) 2021 Federal Permitting Improvement Steering Council (FPISC) guidance.
The enclosed report has three sections:
Section 1 lists each of the FPISC best practice categories, subcategories (as applicable) and corresponding NRC responses.
Section 2 describes activities NRC undertook to improve the permitting process not otherwise described in the best practice categories.
Section 3 provides an overview of general improvements to the review and permitting process.
If you have any questions or need additional information, please contact me, or have your staff contact Eugene Dacus, Director of the Office of Congressional Affairs, at 301-415-1776.
Sincerely, Christopher T. Hanson
Enclosure:
As stated Christopher T.
