GOVERNMENT INFORMATION GP ENERGY AND WATER DEVELOPMENT APPROPRIATIONS FOR FISCAL YEAR 2017 WEDNESDAY, FEBRUARY 24, 2016 U.S. SENATE, SUBCOMMITTEE OF THE COMMITTEE ON APPROPRIATIONS, Washington, DC. The subcommittee met at 2:34 p.m. in room SD-138, Dirksen Senate Office Building, Hon. Lamar Alexander (chairman) pre- siding. Present: Senators Alexander, Murkowski, and Feinstein. NUCLEAR REGULATORY COMMISSION STATEMENT OF HON. STEPHEN G. BURNS, CHAIRMAN ACCOMPANIED BY: HON. KRISTINE SVINICKI, COMMISSIONER HON. WILLIAM OSTENDORFF, COMMISSIONER HON. JEFF BARAN, COMMISSIONER OPENING STATEMENT OF SENATOR LAMAR ALEXANDER Senator ALEXANDER. The Subcommittee on Energy and Water Development please come to order. Today's hearing will review the President's fiscal year 2017 budg- et request for the Nuclear Regulatory Commission. This is our first budget hearing this year. We expect to have three more budget hearings in the coming weeks. Senator Feinstein and I will each have an opening statement, and let me-it gives me an opportunity to say again what a delight it is to serve with her, to serve with somebody who has such good, strong knowledge of the subject, but also who, as a former mayor of a big city, knows how to make a decision. So it's nice to work with her in an effective and bipartisan way. And we find areas where we can put our heads to- gether and come to an agreement and get a result, which makes service in the Senate much more satisfying to me. So I thank her for the way she does things. I will then recognize each Senator for up to 5 minutes after we have our opening statement for an opening statement, alternating between the majority and minority in the order in which they ar- rive, and will then turn to Chairman Burns to present testimony on behalf of the Commission. I will then recognize the Senators for 5 minutes of questions each, alternating from side to side. Our witnesses today include Stephen Burns, chairman of the Nu- clear Regulatory Commission. Welcome, Mr. Chairman. (1)
