NRC cooperating with Coast Guard, Marine Minerals Administration
Within the past month, the Nuclear Regulatory Commission has signed memorandums of understanding to increase its cooperation with two U.S. maritime organizations. In late June, the NRC signed an MOU with the U.S. Coast Guard to strengthen coordination on civilian maritime nuclear projects, including floating nuclear power plants and civilian nuclear propulsion. On July 21, the NRC signed an MOU with the newly formed Marine Minerals Administration (MMA) to improve cooperation regarding potential future nuclear projects on the Outer Continental Shelf.

In order to enable a compact design of the next generation tokamak, 16 T is desired as the maximum magnetic field of its toroidal coil. In Japan Atomic Energy Research Institute (JAERI), for the development of the 16-T toroidal coil, the one-meter-size 16-T demonstration coil program is now being discussed for the next project. As the research and development work for the high field toroidal coil, the segment test program, the FC program and the PHOENIX program are in progress. These programs have showed excellent results and is now going toward the 16-T demonstration coil as the target.
