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.

This panel is dedicated to honor the contributions and legacy of Dr. Paul Turinsky, who initially organized the sequence of ANFM meetings starting back in 1987 in Pinehurst, NC. There have been five previous ANFM meetings, with this meeting being the sixth.
Dr. Turinsky mentored many graduate students, postdocs, and researchers during his professorship at NC State University, many of which have had impactful careers in the areas of reactor physics, nuclear fuel management optimization, and uncertainty quantification & sensitivity/data analysis.
This panel will be hosted by a handful of Dr. Turinsky’s former students and mentees to help highlight the broad impact he has had over various technical areas that continue to flourish within the scope of the ANFM meetings and beyond.
