2020 Standards Forum

The Forum aims at facilitating discussions on codes and standards needs within the nuclear industry and explore how to collaborate in accelerating the development of codes and standards and the NRC's endorsement of these codes and standards in its regulations and regulatory guides. The Forum is an interactive meeting, sponsored by the NRC, that engages stakeholders, such as standards development organizations (e.g. ACI, ANS, ASCE, ASME, ASTM, IEEE, etc.), utilities, research organizations, and NRC staff.
