GLE gets incentives, draft EIS
The governments of Kentucky and McCracken County have granted preliminary approval to Global Laser Enrichment for a comprehensive incentive package to support the development of the North Carolina–based company’s planned Paducah Laser Enrichment Facility in the western part of the state. The performance-based incentive package would provide as much as $98.9 million in tax incentives and other economic incentives—provided that GLE reaches the required thresholds in investments and job creation.
In addition, the Nuclear Regulatory Commission, in cooperation with the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers, has completed a draft environmental impact statement (EIS) in response to GLE’s application to construct and operate the PLEF. Members of the public can submit comments on the draft EIS by May 11 for consideration by the NRC.

This panel session is for sharing tools, lessons learned, challenges and associated with the management of and regulatory oversight for NCS programs. This panel builds on the discussions in previous sessions of lesson learned and training and qualification. However, it looks to share the perspective from more of a programmatic aspect as compared to a floor application level. The session will touch on oversight practices, conduct, and reporting. Panelists from industry and regulatory bodies will present.
