This is a Nuclear Regulatory Commission email thread from September 29 to October 1, 2015, released in 2023. NRC staff, including Region I Regional Counsel Brett Klukan and Raymond Lorson, discuss a possible drone sighting over the Pilgrim nuclear plant. According to the site security manager, Plymouth police found the object was thousands of feet up. The FAA and a Massachusetts State Police helicopter could not identify it, and a weather balloon was suspected. No SIDS report was made because the object posed no threat.
This is a 2023 Nuclear Regulatory Commission presentation by Daryl Johnson, a senior security specialist in NSIR. It proposes updating the NRC's flyover reporting guidance for licensees so that it covers Unidentified Anomalous Phenomena. It cites the FY-2023 National Defense Authorization Act, which requires the NRC to report UAP incidents at facilities it regulates, and notes that NSIR sent AARO a response in June 2023. The presentation recommends asking AARO for guidance, writing UAP reporting guidance for licensees and issuing a Security Advisory.
This 2023 Nuclear Regulatory Commission briefing paper from staff in DSO/SOSB asked for approval to update security incident database flyover reporting guidance so it covers Unidentified Anomalous Phenomena (UAP). It explains that the FY-2023 National Defense Authorization Act requires the NRC to send UAP and drone flyover data to the Pentagon's All-domain Anomaly Resolution Office (AARO) every year. It notes that the NRC has no guidance for telling UAP apart from drones. It recommends a separate UAP category, guidance for licensees and possible rulemaking.
