Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC) Issues Annual Assessments for Nation’s Nuclear Power Plants

Excerpt:  “The Nuclear Regulatory Commission has issued annual letters to the nation’s 93 operating commercial nuclear power reactors, regarding their performance in 2021. … Ninety-one reactors were in the highest performance category. Two reactors were in the second performance category, as the operators needed to resolve one or two items of low safety significance. For this performance level, regulatory oversight includes additional inspection and follow-up of corrective actions. Plants in this category are: Callaway (Missouri); and Davis-Besse (Ohio). There were no reactors in the third or fourth performance category.”
