SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: Section 208 of the Energy Reorganization Act 
of 1974, as amended (Pub. L. 93-438), defines an ``abnormal 
occurrence'' (AO) as an unscheduled incident or event that the NRC 
determines to be significant from the standpoint of public health or 
safety. The report describes those events that the NRC identified as 
AOs during FY 2015, based on the criteria defined in Appendix A of the 
report, ``Abnormal Occurrence Criteria and Guidelines for Other Events 
of Interest.''
    The report describes 15 events at Agreement State-licensed 
facilities and two events at NRC-licensed facilities. One NRC-licensee 
event occurred in a medical facility and involved radiation exposure to 
an embryo/fetus. The 15 Agreement State-licensee events and the other 
NRC-licensee event were medical events as defined in part 35 of title 
10 of the Code of Federal Regulations, ``Medical Use of Byproduct 
Material.'' Agreement States are the 37 States that currently have 
entered into formal agreements with the NRC pursuant to Section 274 of 
the Atomic Energy Act of 1954, as amended (AEA), to regulate certain 
quantities of AEA-licensed

material at facilities located within their borders.
    The Federal Reports Elimination and Sunset Act of 1995 (Public Law 
104-68) requires that the NRC report AOs to Congress annually. The full 
report, NUREG-0090, Volume 38, ``Report to Congress on Abnormal 
Occurrences: Fiscal Year 2015,'' is available electronically at the 
NRC's Web site at http://www.nrc.gov/reading-rm/doc-collections/nuregs/staff/, and in ADAMS under Accession No. ML16145A026.
