HUKARI assists clients in meeting the demanding safety and operational requirements for both Government and Commercial Nuclear Programs, -- new construction, operating plants, and those facilities undergoing various phases of deactivation, decommissioning, and environmental closure. We provide seasoned subject matter experts (SMEs) who intimately understand Department of Energy (DOE) and Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC) nuclear program operations and safety and licensing processes. Our services range from preparing nuclear safety analyses and implementing safety basis programs at field sites, to developing implementation policy and reviewing safety bases and licensing documentation at the Headquarters/agency level. HUKARI provides experts in all aspects of nuclear safety development, documentation, approval, implementation, and maintenance. We have been instrumental in streamlining regulatory approval processes, and supporting our clients in implementing cost-effective nuclear safety programs focused on compliant, safe, efficient performance.

COMMERCIAL Nuclear Facilities
A renewed interest in nuclear power has created rising expectations of new nuclear construction in the U.S. and around the world, thus initiating policies that support new nuclear build, new technologies, license renewal, and power uprates. HUKARI offers services to commercial clients in the licensing and management of NRC/Agreement, State-licensed nuclear facilities. We provide a broad range of services supporting new construction, current operating plants, and facility decommissioning/closure.
