Weaver NRC reappointment gets OK, Senate vote next
The U.S. Senate’s Environment and Public Works (EPW) Committee has recommended Douglas Weaver be reappointed to a full five-year term on the Nuclear Regulatory Commission after his current term expires on June 30.
The committee voted 15-4 in support of Weaver’s nomination on Wednesday, clearing the way for a final vote on the Senate floor. If the Senate votes to confirm Weaver, he would serve on the NRC through June 30, 2031.

A mathematical analysis and experimental averaging techniques are developed for flow measurements that use pulsed neutron activation. Experimental time-weighting procedures are evaluated for the two extremes of laminar and turbulent flow. In addition, criteria are developed that reflect expected error from an experimental procedure. Experimental data and confirmation of weighting techniques follow in a companion paper.
