Episode notes
The NRC and the nuclear industry are locked in this strange. I don't want to call it a love-hate relationship, but they struggle together. If a nuclear plant gets shut down because of economic conditions, say, then the NRC has to start cutting staff. But at the same time, it's one of the burdens that's shutting them down when natural gas was cheap. The regulator wants to be as big as it can without killing the host, right? Meanwhile, the nuclear plants know that they have cooperation with the NRC as long as they're paying, you know, the big bucks and staying on good terms.
