Coronavirus Forces NRC to Cancel Conference

摘要

The Nuclear Regulatory Commission on Thursday announced the cancellation of a major conference set to begin Tuesday just outside of Washington, D.C., as participants dropped out in the face of the spreading coronavirus outbreak. “In recent days, a number of organizations and presenters have changed their attendance plans, with indications that others would reach similar decisions in coming days,” the agency said in a brief press announcement. “The NRC expresses its regret for the inconvenience and looks forward to holding the RIC next year, in 2021.”
