CLEAN SMART bill reintroduced in Senate
Senators Ben Ray Luján (D., N.M.) and Tim Scott (R., S.C.) have reintroduced legislation aimed at leveraging the best available science and technology at U.S. national laboratories to support the cleanup of legacy nuclear waste.
The Combining Laboratory Expertise to Accelerate Novel Solutions for Minimizing Accumulated Radioactive Toxins (CLEAN SMART) Act, introduced on February 11, would authorize up to $58 million annually to develop, demonstrate, and deploy innovative technologies, targeting reduced costs and safer, faster remediation of sites from the Manhattan Project and Cold War.

Bilinear and power law swelling equations were developed for solution-annealed Type 304 stainless steel from Treat Tubing heat 136272. All of the temperatures and fluences were calculated with the same thermal-hydraulic computer code. This procedure insured that all the data were evaluated on a consistent basis. The swelling equations formulated in this investigation were different from other empirical equations because of differences in the swelling data and the form of the swelling equation. The bilinear equation is recommended for the analysis of experimental data and will be used in the analysis of residual stress measurements made on the same lot of tubing.
