Grusch: Oh, all those guys. The guys that were involved in Manhattan were overlaying the same ecosystem of secrecy in some of the same ways to protect stuff, that they're protecting our nuclear secrets. If you read the definition of special nuclear material in the public Atomic Energy Act of 1954, it basically states any material that releases any kind of atomic energy.

Michels: That would be retrieved crash material.

Grusch: Yeah.

Michels: So it's kind of a sneaky way.

Grusch: No, it is! If you actually read the Atomic Energy Act? If something is not a nuke, but it has radiological energy coming off it, you know, alpha, beta decay, whatever...

Michels: Same secrecy.

Grusch: Same secrecy.

Others have pointed out the importance of the Atomic Energy Act of 1954 and how certain materials can be claimed "nuclear" in order to hide them.

This one almost got 1K upvotes:

So we've established that this is a method of gatekeeping. And yes, there is a UAP Disclosure Act being passed to attempt to rectify this. However, as I've pointed out in the past, that act retains the same kind of nuclear is off limits language. But I have some good news. Some other laws have been passed that officially changes the definition of nuclear classifications and it directly addresses this problem. Fusion energy is no longer considered regulated under nuclear energy and is now officially classified as a particle accelerator. This has been done to pave the way for new advances in fusion energy within the commercial sector and to remain competitive with China, who is investing heavily in fusion energy.

"On Friday, April 14, the five Commissioners of the US Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC) announced in a unanimous vote that fusion energy would be regulated in the United States under the same regulatory regime as particle accelerators. Such an approach, listed in the United States under the byproduct materials regulatory regime (10 CFR Part 30), would separate the regulatory oversight of fusion from the utilization facilities regime (10 CFR Parts 50 & 52) that regulate nuclear fission energy. This is an important decision that will give fusion developers the regulatory certainty they need to innovate while they grow fusion energy into a viable new energy source, while also most effectively protecting the safety, security, and health of the public.

The FIA’s position has maintained that the case is clear: fusion energy is not nuclear fission, and therefore should not be regulated as such. Today’s decision affirms that principle, and the five NRC Commissioners deserve commendation for making this decision."

"On June 18, in a bipartisan 88-2 vote, the Senate passed S.870, the Fire Grants and Safety Act, which included the Fusion Energy Act Act, legislation that codifies the permanent separation of fusion energy regulations from nuclear fission.

The Fusion Energy Act was introduced to the Senate by Senators Padilla, Cornyn, Booker, Young, and Murray on April 18. The legislation streamlines the implementation of commercial fusion by codifying the Nuclear Regulatory Commission’s (NRC) unanimous, bipartisan decision to regulate fusion energy systems under NRC’s byproduct materials process. It also requires the NRC to study and report to Congress within one year regarding licensing commercial fusion machines, including streamlining considerations.

Its companion bill – the Fusion Energy Act of 2023 – was passed earlier in the year in the House of Representatives as a part of the Atomic Energy Advancement Act. Representatives Lori Trahan and Jay Obernolte introduced the Fusion Energy Act of 2023 as an amendment during thecommittee consideration of the bill. The Act amends the Atomic Energy Act of 1954 to add a new definition of “fusion machines” as particle accelerators. That clarification confirms the NRC decision in US law.

This distinction will allow for a more streamlined deployment route for fusion energy, crucial to ensuring the United States’ position as a global leader in commercial fusion development."

Whether man made, or NHI made I frankly don't care. If there is a piece of technology stove piped somewhere using fusion energy it can no longer be hidden under this gross misinterpretation of "nuclear safety" or "national security." The jig may be up.
