NRC Requests Small Budget Plus-Up for 2021

摘要

The Nuclear Regulatory Commission is requesting $863.4 million in funding for the upcoming 2021 fiscal year, a small step up from the $855.6 million authorized by Congress for the current spending cycle. But the agency noted Monday that amount would be 17% below its spending for fiscal 2014, just over $1 billion. In that time, the number of full-time equivalent (FTE) personnel will also have dropped by one-quarter, from 3,799.7 to 2,868.
