NRC to add new items to categorical exclusions list
The Nuclear Regulatory Commission has identified five categories of action to add to its list of categorical exclusions to reduce its documentation work under National Environmental Policy Act (NEPA) procedures.
These revisions are included in the final rule, “Categorical exclusions from environmental review,” which was published in the Federal Register on March 30. The final rule will become effective on April 29.

The 1/ neoclassical transport (effective ripple) is calculated for the l = 3 Uragan-3M torsatron in the presence of magnetic islands caused by a small eccentricity in the vertical field coils. The technique used for the calculations is based on integration along magnetic field lines in a given stellarator magnetic field. For comparison, calculations are also performed for the case of negligible eccentricity.
