南卡罗来纳州核能峰会聚焦联邦土地再利用 萨凡纳河场址加速钚处置成议题
据美国能源部发布的信息，第三届南卡罗来纳州核能峰会近日举行，600多名业界与政府代表与会，讨论如何利用联邦土地推进先进核能与相关基础设施建设。能源部环境管理助理部长蒂姆·沃尔什（Tim Walsh）在南卡罗来纳州州长亨利·麦克马斯特（Henry McMaster）之后发言，并参加了关于联邦土地在下一阶段核能发展中作用的专题讨论。
沃尔什表示，环境管理计划下尚存的15处冷战与二战时期遗留场址正在被重新规划，用于扩大能源生产、先进制造等用途，清理进度加快有助于土地更快转入生产性使用。专题讨论由萨凡纳河场址社区再利用组织负责人罗比·贝内特（Robbie Bennett）主持，Amentum、DC BLOX、Antares Nuclear、Oklo与Newcleo等机构代表参加。
会议议题之一是重启萨凡纳河场址的HB-Line设施。据能源部信息，该设施重启预计可将钚处置进程提前10至13年，并节省多达3.5亿美元的纳税人支出。

South Carolina Nuclear Summit Focuses on Reusing Federal Land; Savannah River Site HB-Line Restart Discussed
The third annual South Carolina Nuclear Summit drew more than 600 leaders to discuss positioning federal land for advanced nuclear and related infrastructure, according to the U.S. Department of Energy. Assistant Secretary for Environmental Management Tim Walsh spoke after South Carolina Governor Henry McMaster and joined a panel on the role of federal property in the next phase of nuclear development.
Walsh said the Environmental Management program's 15 remaining legacy sites from World War II and Cold War missions are being revitalized to help expand energy production and advanced manufacturing, and that faster cleanup can accelerate transferring land to more productive uses. The panel, moderated by SRS Community Reuse Organization President and CEO Robbie Bennett, included representatives from Amentum, DC BLOX, Antares Nuclear, Oklo Inc. and Newcleo.
One topic was restarting the HB-Line at the Savannah River Site, which the department says is expected to accelerate plutonium disposition by 10 to 13 years and deliver up to $350 million in taxpayer savings.
