Ted Garrish faces Senate committee for DOE nuclear post
Garrish
A veteran nuclear leader with more than four decades of experience testified before a U.S. Senate committee on Wednesday as part of the nomination process to become the next NE-1, the Department of Energy’s assistant secretary for nuclear energy.
Theodore “Ted” Garrish appeared before the Senate Committee on Energy & Natural Resources to answer questions about how he would approach the position—which he last held from 1987 to 1989, during the Ronald Reagan administration.
Garrish told the committee he has dedicated his career to energy—especially nuclear energy—and has worked mostly in public service positions, including posts in the DOE and Office of International Affairs.
The committee will advance Garrish’s nomination to the full U.S. Senate for a final vote, but no timeline was laid out.

France is participating as one of the European voluntary contributors to the joint Europe-Japan so-called Broader Approach (BA) activities in support of ITER and DEMO activities, consisting of three projects: the engineering design and validation of a 14-MeV-neutron irradiation facility (IFMIF-EVEDA), the building of the International Fusion Energy Research Centre (IFERC), and the ITER Satellite Tokamak Programme (STP-JT-60SA). This paper gives an overview of the French contributions to the BA projects and reports on the present status of these projects since 2007.
