The American Nuclear Society’s annual meeting in June is themed, “Nuclear Science and Technology: Now Arriving on Main Street.” In light of recent reports on the industry’s supply chain flaws, can the package “arrive on Main Street” on time and in one damage-free piece?

According to the Commission, some parts used in reactors are counterfeit or defective because of an influx of foreign or inexperienced manufacturers crowding in to supply the industry.
