PUBLIC SUBMISSION As of: 5/30/24, 7:18 AM Received: May 28, 2024 Status: Pending_Post Tracking No. lwq-c79s-gl65 Comments Due: May 28, 2024 Submission Type: Web Docket: NRC-2023-0138 Kairos Power, LLC Receipt of Construction Permit Application Comment On: NRC-2023-0138-0005 Kairos Power, LLC; Hermes 2; Draft Environmental Assessment and Draft Finding of No Significant Impact Document: NRC-2023-0138-DRAFT-0005 Comment on FR Doc # 2024-08964 Submitter Information Name: Peter Newby Address:
Oak Ridge, TN, 37830 Email:peter.newby.work@gmail.com General Comment I am writing in response to the Draft EA for Docket ID NRC-2023-0138.
I agree with the determination that the EA is sufficient to allow a construction permit to allow construction of a non-power test reactor termed Hermes on a 185-ac site in Oak Ridge, Tennessee. In particular, the ecological impact of building in an established nuclear-industrial community will be small, the long-established history of advancing nuclear technologies in the Oak Ridge, TN area is consistent with the long-term purpose of the Hermes project, and the socio-economic impact will be positive.
Furthermore, the long-term positive impact of deploying nuclear technologies to reduce our carbon footprint could be considered in future evaluations.
