The NRC's Plain Writing Action Plan, Reports, and News The U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC)
is committed to using plain writing for every "covered document"
that we issue or substantially revise. As described in The Plain Writing Act of 2010, a
"covered document" meets one or more of the following criteria: ·
Is
relevant to obtaining any Federal benefit or service or filing taxes; ·
Provides
information about any Federal benefit or service; or ·
Explains
to the public how to comply with a requirement. Based on this definition, by October 13,
2011, we will follow Our Plain Writing Guidance for our public
Web site, Blog postings, correspondence, forms, and brochures. We will also
use plain writing for all notices that inform you of meetings and significant
actions. We will even use plain writing for specialized technical
publications, but we will consider the needs and subject matter expertise of
our intended audience. In addition, we will use plain writing to develop
licenses, license amendments, and guidance documents. Such documents are
primarily intended for our licensees, who are technically proficient in
nuclear matters. Nonetheless, we believe that these documents must be clear,
concise, and well-organized because they explain how to comply with NRC
requirements. In cases where these documents must necessarily be written in
considerable technical detail, we will develop a brief executive summary to
make the content accessible and easy for you to understand. For additional detail, see the following

Plain Writing Act Compliance Reports · News About Plain Writing at the NRC The
NRC's Plain Writing Action Plan On July 12, 2011, the NRC published an initial report that describes our plan for implementing the requirements of The Plain Writing Act of 2010. We invite you to Contact Us to offer your thoughts about this report. For a discussion of plain writing at the NRC, see our related Blog posting, entitled "Are We Writing in Plain English?" The
NRC's Plain Writing Act Compliance Reports In its Final Guidance on Implementing the Act, the
Office of Management and Budget (OMB) instructed Federal agencies to publish
annual reports describing their continuing compliance with The Plain Writing Act of 2010. Consistent
with that guidance, the following table lists all annual reports issued to
date to document our progress and compliance.
In addition, we survey agency stakeholders on an annual basis as part of our self-assessment of the NRC’s Reactor Oversight Program. These surveys include questions to assess our success in issuing inspection reports that are relevant, useful, and written in plain language. See Stakeholder Feedback for a discussion of the survey results since 1999. News
