Comment on FR Doc # 2026-08550, NRC-2025-0379-0011, from The Healthy Environment Alliance of Utah

Summary: HEAL Utah, an organization dedicated to public health and environmental protection, opposes the proposed rule because it prioritizes rapid nuclear deployment over rigorous safety reviews and public participation. They argue that streamlining the licensing process for microreactors risks replicating design flaws on a large scale and fails to account for the cumulative environmental and health impacts of the full nuclear fuel cycle.
