NRC proposes changes to its rules on nuclear materials
In response to Executive Order 14300, “Ordering the Reform of the Nuclear Regulatory Commission,” the NRC is proposing sweeping changes to its rules governing the use of nuclear materials that are widely used in industry, medicine, and research. The changes would amend NRC regulations for the licensing of nuclear byproduct material, some source material, and some special nuclear material.
As published in the May 18 Federal Register, the NRC is seeking public comment on this proposed rule and draft interim guidance until July 2.

A representation for structured data is described that does not make use of a resonance parameter formalism and is applicable in a region where resonance parameters cannot be resolved or in a resolved resonance region where the precise location of a resonance is unimportant. Following the Probability Table Method, a representation statistically equivalent to a pointwise description of data is given but extended to characterize energy correlations. In the case of data from which higher order derivatives can be taken, a method for temperature broadening and unbroadening data is presented.
