II. Background 

In accordance with the Government 

Performance and Results (GPRA) 

Modernization Act of 2010, agencies are 

required to submit their strategic plans 

to Congress the year following the start 

of a Presidential term. The Commission 

has approved a draft Strategic Plan and 

is now seeking comments from the 

public so that the agency may benefit 

from a wide range of stakeholder input 

to help shape the NRC’s strategic 

direction for the upcoming planning 

period. 

III. Draft Strategic Plan 

The NRC is an independent agency 

established by the Energy 

Reorganization Act of 1974 that began 

operations in 1975 as a successor to the 

Atomic Energy Commission. The NRC’s 

mission is to license and regulate the 

Nation’s civilian use of radioactive 

materials to provide reasonable 

assurance of adequate protection of 

public health and safety and to promote 

the common defense and security and to 

protect the environment. The draft 

Strategic Plan, covering the period 

Fiscal Years 2018–2022, describes how 

the NRC plans to achieve its two 

strategic goals: (1) Ensure the safe use of 

radioactive materials, and (2) ensure the 

secure use of radioactive materials. The 

draft Strategic Plan provides an 

overview of the NRC’s responsibilities 

and lays out the objectives, strategies, 

and key activities that will be used to 

achieve the agency’s strategic goals. 

The NRC encourages all interested 

parties to comment on the draft 

Strategic Plan, particularly on the plan’s 

goals, objectives, and strategies. 

Stakeholder feedback will be valuable in 

helping the Commission develop a final 

Strategic Plan that has the benefit of the 

many views of the public and the 

regulated civilian nuclear industry. The 

NRC will consider the comments 

submitted and may use them, as 

appropriate, in the preparation of the 

final Strategic Plan; however, the NRC 

does not anticipate preparing explicit 

responses to each comment. 

Dated at Rockville, Maryland, this 20th day 

of September 2017.
