Nuclear Energy Insight

The latest issue of Nuclear Energy Insight is now available online. In it, you will find an article on Mickey Franczak, a worker at the PPL Susquehanna nuclear plant and his Seeing Eye dog, Archer. There also are reports on Iowa's embrace of clean, safe nuclear power as a “smart answer” to the state's energy needs and an NRC task force that found no health impacts from inadvertent releases of radioactive liquids. Other articles discuss the pairing of synthetic venom and nuclear technology to fight cancer, refueling outages that go beyond routine to boost plant performance, and proposals that seek progress on the Yucca Mountain repository.
