DOE issues new NEPA rule and procedures—and accelerates DOME reactor testing
Meeting a deadline set in President Trump’s May 23 executive order “Reforming Nuclear Reactor Testing at the Department of Energy,” the DOE on June 30 updated information on its National Environmental Policy Act (NEPA) rulemaking and implementation procedures and published on its website an interim final rule that rescinds existing regulations alongside new implementing procedures.

The DITE tokamak has a bundle divertor capable of operating in the maximum toroidal field of 2.7 T. A scanning infrared camera with a framing rate of 50 f.p.s. has been used to determine the power and power density at the divertor target. For discharges with 1.4 MW of neutral injection, peak diverted powers of nearly 400 kW were observed during the neutral injection period, representing 24% of the total input power. Power densities on the ion drift side of the target of up to 30 MW m−2 were measured for these discharges. Discharges without neutral injection show a maximum power diversion when the gas puffing is switched off.
