House GOP investigates 'chilled' atmosphere at agency
House Republicans are again targeting the chairman of the Nuclear Regulatory Commission in an ongoing investigation over accusations that he berates fellow employees and creates a "chilled" work environment at the agency. Republicans on the House Energy and Commerce Committee want NRC Chairman Gregory Jaczko, a Democrat, to explain whether employees are free to raise concerns without fear of retaliation, or whether his management style and intense focus on safety are drowning out other voices.
