A bill to require the Nuclear Regulatory Commission to prepare a comparison of risk prior to the promulgation of any rule or regulation.

Summary

Prohibits the Nuclear Regulatory Commission from promulgating any rule or regulation without first publishing and making available for public comment a comparison of the risk or risks involved in either issuing or not issuing any such rule or regulation. Specifies that evaluations are to be made of such risks as compared with the issuance of alternative rules or regulations on the same subject, and the use of alternative technological processes, and requires a cost-benefit analysis of such risks as well as an evaluation of the extent to which such risks are not as quantifiable.
