Alert

Due to a lapse in appropriations, the NRC has ceased normal operations. However, excepted and exempted activities necessary to maintain critical health and safety functions—as well as essential progress on designated critical activities, including those specified in Executive Order 14300—will continue, consistent with the OMB-Approved NRC Lapse Plan.

Supplementing Federal Salary

The criminal law (18 USC 209) prohibits employees from receiving any salary or supplementation to their Government salary for carrying out their official services from anyone other than the Government (except a State, county, or municipality).

Example: An employee who is making a speech while on official duty cannot accept a fee from the organization which sponsored the event.
