U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC) Annual Evaluation Plan Fiscal Year 2023

Excerpt:  “This report fulfills the NRC’s requirement to complete an Annual Evaluation Plan as established by Section 101 of the Evidence Act. The Annual Evaluation Plan provides summary information on evaluations being initiated in FY 2023. The Evidence Act defines an ‘evaluation’ as ‘an assessment using systematic data collection and analysis of one or more programs, policies, and organizations intended to assess their effectiveness and efficiency.’ Generally, evaluations are performed for organizational learning and improvement purposes and to enhance the agency mission. The evaluations being conducted will assist in answering priority questions established in the Evidence-Building Plan or other evaluations determined to be significant, such as those required by statute or those of high value to the agency. The evaluation plans are subject to change and will continue to be refined as new information or insights are identified.”
