NRC issues draft EA/FONSI for Duane Arnold restart
Efforts by NextEra Energy to restart the Duane Arnold nuclear power plant as early as 2029 continue to move forward with the Nuclear Regulatory Commission's preliminary environmental assessment and determination that the restart would have no significant environmental impacts.
On Thursday, the NRC posted a draft environmental assessment and a finding of no significant impact for the Palo, Iowa, facility; the Federal Register notice was published on Monday. The Department of Energy’s Office of Energy Dominance Financing is a cooperating agency on the draft EA, as the DOE is considering providing financial assistance to the restart project.

Magnetic activity of plasma during the injection of 2-8 MW non-relativistic electron beam of sub-millisecond duration in GOL-3 is studied.The main parameters of fluctuations of the magnetic field are discussed. In most experiments the m = 1 azimuthal mode has the largest value, although, higher modes stay significant. Amplitude of the largest perturbations is ~1/2 of the beam radius. The phase grows monotonically, rotational velocity agrees well with the expected E×B drift.Longitudinal velocity of the fluctuations was also measured, its value v ~ 107 cm/s is close to the ion sound speed for Te ~ 100 eV.
