Who’s in the running for DOE Nuclear Lifecycle Innovation Campuses?
Today is the Department of Energy’s deadline for states to respond to a request for information on proposed Nuclear Lifecycle Innovation Campuses. Issued on January 28, the RFI marks the first step toward potentially establishing voluntary federal-state partnerships designed to build a coherent, end-to-end nuclear fuel cycle strategy for the country, including waste management, according to the DOE.
Local Sections are the bedrock of ANS's outreach and engagement efforts, serving as vital hubs for promoting the benefits of nuclear science and technology within their communities. Their dedicated efforts provide the public with accurate and accessible information on the societal advantages of nuclear science and technology. The sections are also instrumental in creating vital networking opportunities and facilitating information exchange among nuclear professionals, strengthening the local nuclear community.
