ANS joins others in seeking to discuss SNF/HLW impasse
The American Nuclear Society joined seven other organizations to send a letter to Energy Secretary Christopher Wright on July 8, asking to meet with him to discuss “the restoration of a highly functioning program to meet DOE’s legal responsibility to manage and dispose of the nation’s commercial and legacy defense spent nuclear fuel (SNF) and high-level radioactive waste (HLW).”
For more than 65 years, the American Nuclear Society has provided a forum for advancing the state of applied nuclear science and technology. ANS meetings and conferences are the best way to keep current with the ever changing fields of nuclear science and technology.
In addition to two national conferences per year, ANS sponsors many topical meetings which concentrate on a particular technical area. Many of these meetings are planned many years in advance and are listed here. To have a conference listed here, it must be approved by the National Program Committee of the American Nuclear Society for inclusion on the ANS Calendar.
