FANCO informs NRC of its intent to build HALEU fuel fabrication facility
First American Nuclear Co., developer of the 240-MWe EAGL-1 reactor, has announced its intention to make its own advanced reactor fuel. The Indianapolis-based company has filed a regulatory engagement plan with the Nuclear Regulatory Commission for the construction of a Category II high-assay low-enriched uranium deconversion and fuel fabrication facility, and the NRC has docketed the plan for consideration.
