Reorganize the Office of Nuclear Energy into three lines of responsibility
Printed page 376 12. Department of Energy and Related Commissions
“Reorganize its remaining activities into three basic lines of responsibility: nuclear fuels across the fuel cycle, reactor technology, and civilian radioactive waste.”
What has happened
- Not started
No reorganization of the Office of Nuclear Energy into three lines of responsibility was found. NE's current structure already groups its work into advanced and commercial reactors, the nuclear fuel cycle, and an Office of Spent Fuel and High-Level Waste Disposition with sub-offices for disposal research, storage and transportation, and consent-based siting — but that structure predates the evidence window and no order, notice or press release inside it changed NE's internal lines.
No action found yet. This entry is the starting point, not a finding.

What was searched, and what didn’t count as evidence
Research notes
Negative search: no DOE reorganization announcement, Federal Register notice or organization-chart change touching NE’s internal structure between 2025-01-20 and 2026-08-31. The November 2025 realignment moved offices around NE without dividing NE itself.
Not flagged Already true: the existing structure is close to but not the same as the three lines the Quote names, and nothing was done inside the window either way.
