DOE/EA-2230: Finding of No Significant Impact

X-energy Helium Test Facility Oak Ridge, Tennessee

The DOE, Office of Clean Energy Demonstrations (OCED) issued this FONSI based on the final EA which evaluated the potential environmental impacts of a proposal, (the X-energy Helium Test Facility) that consists of the design and  construction of a facility to test critical structures, systems, and components that are considered First-in-a-While in a hard, high temperature helium environment to increase the technical readiness level of X-energy’s design of the high temperature gas cooled Small Modular Reactor.
