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.”

We present the current status of the laser-based tritium separation system being developed at Ontario Hydro. The operation of the system is described in detail, and cost and size estimates for a plant processing 500 L/h of water from 10 Ci/L down to 1 Ci/L are given.
