NRC Home Page

The US Nuclear Regulatory Commission was established by Congress as an independent agency in January 1975 through the passage of the Energy Reorganization Act of 1974. The NRC was given a mandate to take over from the former Atomic Energy Commission responsibility for regulating various commercial, industrial, academic, and medical uses of nuclear energy. We regulate over 100 commercial nuclear power plants which provide more than 20% of the nation's electricity. We also regulate such things as nuclear materials used in the diagnosis and treatment of cancer, in sterilizing instruments, in smoke detectors, and in gauges used to detect explosives in luggage at airports.
