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.”

The RF-field structures are measured by the magnetic probe arrays in the edge region of the central cell of the Hanbit magnetic mirror device. The probe data was obtained during RF discharges produced by a slot antenna with frequency of 3.75 MHz and heating power of up to 150kW. For further reliable measurements, the calibration of the probe was carried out with a network analyzer for the RF frequency range of 1 – 10 MHz. The experimental results from the measurements are presented.
