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.”

Particle orbit, simulations are carried out to study the reflection of Ile ions recycled from a tokamak divertor by RF electric fields, which have the frequency close to ion cyclotron resonance frequency(ICRF). The performance of particle reflection and the requirement to the intensity of RF fields are studied. The control of He recycling by ICRF fields is found to be available.
