DOE announces NEPA exclusion for advanced reactors
The Department of Energy has announced that it is establishing a categorical exclusion for the application of National Environmental Policy Act (NEPA) procedures to the authorization, siting, construction, operation, reauthorization, and decommissioning of advanced nuclear reactors.
According to the DOE, this significant change, which goes into effect today, “is based on the experience of DOE and other federal agencies, current technologies, regulatory requirements, and accepted industry practice.”

The presence of large magnetic interferences in the EBTP plasma makes the detection of normal zones in the superconductor extremely difficult. A technique has been developed to model these magnetic noises and coil components as mutual inductances. The computer program SPICE was then used to develop a proposed conceptual circuit for reliable protection of the EBT-P mirror coils in the 60 GHz mode that may later be upgraded to 90 GHz operations.
