To amend the Atomic Energy Act of 1954 and the Nuclear Energy Innovation and Modernization Act to limit the type of applications reviewed by the Advisory Committee on Reactor Safeguards and to exclude reviews by the Advisory Committee on Reactor Safeguards from the Nuclear Regulatory Commission's annual assessment and collection of fees and charges.

HR 9199 limits the scope of reviews conducted by the Advisory Committee on Reactor Safeguards (ACRS) under the Atomic Energy Act. It restricts ACRS to only reviewing nuclear license applications involving novel issues or significant safety concerns, based on risk assessments by the committee. The bill also removes ACRS reviews from the Nuclear Regulatory Commission's (NRC) annual fee calculations for license applications. This directly affects the NRC's process for handling license applications and the fee structure for nuclear facility operators seeking approvals.
