The U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission issued a 'Finding of No Significant Impact' for the Long Mott Generating Station, a proposed advanced nuclear project in Seadrift, Texas, developed by Dow and X-energy. This regulatory milestone, completed ahead of schedule, clears a major environmental hurdle for the project's Construction Permit Application. The reactor will provide electricity and high-temperature steam to Dow's UCC Seadrift Operations, supporting the production of over 4 billion pounds of materials annually.
