ANS, UCOR sign MOU for workforce development program
The American Nuclear Society and United Cleanup Oak Ridge have signed a memorandum of understanding that establishes a framework for collaboration to advance ANS workforce training and certification programs serving the nuclear industry.
According to the document, UCOR will provide “operational insights and subject matter expertise to inform ANS’s professional development and credentialing offerings, including the Certified Nuclear Professional [CNP] program.” The collaboration will strengthen UCOR’s workforce development efforts while advancing ANS’s mission to sustain and expand the national nuclear workforce pipeline and capabilities.

A system has been designed to evaluate MPC level concentrations of 131I in reactor environments. The system provides reliable determinations of total 131I concentrations even under such unfavorable sampling conditions as high relative humidity or very low concentrations. Furthermore, the fraction of methyl iodide present can also be determined from the activity distribution on the several parts of the system. Field experiments were conducted at Consolidated Edison's Indian Point No. 1 reactor. The results of these tests are presented and discussed.
