NRC provides timeline update on rules, meeting EO deadline
Last May, President Trump issued Executive Order (EO) 14300, “Ordering the Reform of the Nuclear Regulatory Commission,” which mandated that the NRC review and overhaul its rules within 18 months of the EO being issued.
At a public meeting on Thursday, NRC officials shared details and an overview of the rulemaking process, saying that they were on target to have these rules ready by the November 23 deadline.

The differential cross sections of the 10B(n, )7Li reaction were measured at 4.17, 5.02, 5.74, and 6.52 MeV by using a gridded ionization chamber. Neutrons were produced through the D(d,n)3He reaction. The absolute neutron flux was determined through the 238U(n,f) reaction. The experiment shows that as the neutron energy increases from 4.17 to 6.52 MeV, the differential cross section changes from almost 90-deg symmetry to obviously backward peaked in the center-of-mass reference system.
