# FERC and NRC Discuss Grid Reliability in Maryland

FERC and NRC will hold a public joint meeting on October 22, 2026, at NRC Headquarters in Rockville, Maryland, with a live webcast. Commissioners will discuss grid reliability, nuclear power, and cybersecurity. The announcement identifies no solicitation, contract award, or specific procurement opportunity, but the discussion may offer contractors insight into agency priorities and technical issues relevant to work in these sectors.

- The meeting is five days away; contractors in electricity infrastructure, nuclear power, and cybersecurity can attend in person or follow the webcast to hear the agencies’ discussion.
- Procurement and business development teams can use the topics discussed as context for evaluating relevant agency needs, but should not treat the meeting announcement as a solicitation or evidence of a specific planned acquisition.
