What happened

Some supportReported by 1 outlet

The Nuclear Regulatory Commission approved the Standard Practice Procedures Plan (SPPP) for LIS Technologies Inc.'s Test Demonstration Facility in Oak Ridge, Tennessee, on October 15, 2026. The SPPP describes the security procedures and controls for the facility’s “closed area,” which safeguards classified matter related to LIS’s proprietary laser enrichment process, CRISLA-4G. The NRC found the submitted plan met regulatory requirements and provided reasonable assurance that sensitive information would be protected.
