A recent American Nuclear Society webinar featured an extended one-on-one conversation between ANS CEO Craig Piercy and Marla Morales, the acting deputy assistant secretary for spent fuel and high-level waste disposition at the Department of Energy’s Office of Nuclear Energy.

U.S. Nuclear Nexus is a web platform with a human interface that connects U.S. industry to NNSA resources and expertise by providing a single point of access to NNSA and DOE laboratory complex’s recommendations, training, working groups, reference tools, and other relevant regulations. Nexus combines a human interface with a request tracking system to respond and manage support and engagement among NNSA and U.S. Government offices. Nexus helps integrate international nuclear safeguards and nuclear security early in the design process.
