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.

We applied Fraunhofer diffraction (FD) method to plasma density fluctuation measurement in GAMMA10. In GAMMA10 the drift-type fluctuation in the electron density and potentials and its suppression with application of electron cyclotron heating (ECH) are observed. The FD method can measure the fluctuation spectra in detail. We successfully obtained the density fluctuation spectra and its suppression with application of ECH by using FD method for the first time.
