GAO report describes cleanup progress at Moab Mill Site
A new report released by the U.S. Government Accountability Office states that the Department of Energy’s Office of Environmental Management (EM) has disposed of more than 16 million tons of radioactive and hazardous waste from the Moab Mill Site. While cleanup continues at the Cold War–era uranium ore processing site in southeastern Utah, a plan for the next phase of groundwater remediation is still needed, according to the GAO.

Comprehensive load-follow demonstrations were conducted on Consolidated Edison’s Indian Point, Unit 2 plant located in Buchanan, New York, in August and September of 1974. The purpose was to examine new load-follow procedures recently developed by Westinghouse for pressurized water reactor usage. These procedures are based on constant axial offset (or target flux difference) power-distribution control. Two different modes of load-follow operation, with and without part-length control rods, were performed. The operational feasibility of constant axial offset power-distribution control has been verified as a result of the Indian Point demonstrations.
