Fuel loading process begins at Palisades
The Palisades nuclear power plant has drawn closer to restart, as plant staff began the process of loading fuel into the reactor vessel on Sunday morning.
The commencement of fuel loading places the Covert, Mich., facility in Mode 6—or the refueling stage—under the plant’s technical specifications, plant owner and operator Holtec International said in a news release. The Palisades reactor core consists of 204 fuel assemblies that include new fuel and partially used fuel from the plant’s most recent operating cycles. According to Holtec, the fuel loading is being conducted in accordance with plant procedures and technical specifications.

For many neurodivergent professionals, burnout isn't just about workload, it’s the logical outcome of navigating a world designed for neurotypical people. This workshop reframes burnout through a neuro-affirming lens in order to accurately identify root causes, including sensory overwhelm and masking. Participants will learn to identify early warning signs and develop personalized strategies to protect their energy. We will conclude by looking beyond individual "self-care" to the systemic changes—such as flexible scheduling and sensory-friendly environments—that create a healthier, more sustainable workplace for every employee.
