NRC to add new items to categorical exclusions list
The Nuclear Regulatory Commission has identified five categories of action to add to its list of categorical exclusions to reduce its documentation work under National Environmental Policy Act (NEPA) procedures.
These revisions are included in the final rule, “Categorical exclusions from environmental review,” which was published in the Federal Register on March 30. The final rule will become effective on April 29.

The Fe54 (n,p)Mn54 cross section has been measured at eleven points between 3.55 MeV and 17.4 MeV using an activation technique. The excitation function appears to reach a peak at about 5.7 MeV. A fission-neutron cross section based on these and earlier differential data yields a value of 67 mb, in good agreement with some recent integral measurements.
