$40M investment to spur new nuclear developments in Idaho and Wyoming
On Monday, the U.S. Department of Commerce announced that its Economic Development Administration (EDA) intends to award $31 million to the Intermountain-West Nuclear Energy Corridor (INEC) Tech Hub. The Idaho Advanced Energy Consortium (IAEC), the group that leads the INEC Tech Hub, subsequently announced that matching donations from its stakeholder partners will bring the total investment up to $40 million.

The postirradiation fatigue-crack propagation behavior of solution-annealed Type-304 and 20% cold-worked Type-316 stainless steels irradiated to a fluence of 1.3 × 1021 n/cm2 (E >0.1 MeV) at temperatures of ∼851 and 891°F (455 and 477°C) was characterized using linear elastic fracture mechanics techniques. Irradiation to this fluence had little or no effect on the crack growth behavior of both materials at test temperatures of 800 and 1000°F (427 and 538°C).
