INL’s HFEF celebrates landmark status with plaque unveiling
American Nuclear Society President Mark Peters visited Idaho National Laboratory on August 12 to unveil the plaque that officially designates the Hot Fuel Examination Facility (HFEF) a Nuclear Historic Landmark.
Landmark status was conferred on HFEF last October. It is INL’s 10th landmark on the list and one of 101 the Society has honored since 1985. ANS’s Nuclear Historic Landmark Award memorializes sites and facilities where outstanding physical accomplishments that advanced the peaceful uses of nuclear energy have taken place. The award recognizes facilities that were in service at least 20 years ago.

Crud Induced Power Shift (CIPS) has been reasonably well-managed in the United States PWR fleet since 2014; however, recent interest for extended cycle lengths and power uprates have renewed focus on understanding CIPS risk assessment and defining margin for more aggressive core designs. This panel session will focus on utility issues and concerns, and highlight the risk assessment methods and tools available to the industry.
