What are the benefits of submitting data electronically to NMMSS via the classified or unclassified direct links?
A. The benefits of submitting data to NMMSS electronically include timelier data submission, reduced chance of human input error, and paper reduction. Use of the direct links is also less expensive than most modes of submission. A final important note: if you are a licensee, electronic reporting is required by the NRC. You may also receive your reports via the direct links, greatly reducing the time involved. Q.
