AI-generated summary, report an errorThis bill changes the Atomic Energy Act of 1954 to let the Chairman of the Nuclear Regulatory Commission set the pay of career Senior Executive Service employees at the Commission. The pay could be up to 110 percent of the highest yearly basic pay rate for Senior Executive Service positions. This authority would apply no matter when the employee was hired. It would not affect the certification of the Commission's performance appraisal system. The Commission would have to report how many career appointees have their pay set this way, and related reporting and oversight provisions would be updated to include this new authority.
