ALL AGREEMENT STATES, CONNECTICUT, INDIANA, AND WEST VIRGINIA FINAL FEE RULE - FEE RECOVERY FOR FISCAL YEAR 2024 (STC-24-046)
Purpose:
This is to inform you that the U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC) has published a final rule to modify Title 10 of the Code of Federal Regulations (10 CFR) Parts 2, 15, 37, 73, 110, 140, 170 and 171 regarding the licensing, inspection, special project, and annual fees to recover approximately 100 percent of its Fiscal Year (FY) 2024 budget authority, less the budget authority for excluded activities.
Background:
These amendments are necessary to comply with the Nuclear Energy Innovation and Modernization Act (NEIMA), which requires the NRC to recover, to the maximum extent practicable, approximately 100 percent of its annual budget less certain amounts excluded from this fee recovery requirement. The final rule also includes a Schedule of Materials Fees for FY 2024. The final rule was published in Federal Register(FR) on June 20, 2024 89 FR 51789 and becomes effective on August 19, 2024.
Discussion: The NRC is issuing this FY 2024 final fee rule based on the FY 2024 budget request, because a full-year appropriation has not been enacted for FY 2024. The NRC will adjust the fees described in this final rule to reflect the enacted budget authority for FY 2024.
As described in the FY 2024 Final Fee Rule, the NRC is increasing the professional hourly rate from $300 to $317. The final fee rule is available on the Federal eRulemaking Portal at:
https://www.regulations.gov under Docket ID: NRC-2022-0046-0011 or at https://www.nrc.gov/about-nrc/regulatory/licensing/fees.html. Please inform your licensees of the FY 2024 final fee rule and how they can access it.
