  • On Aug 24, 2025 BWXT Advanced Fuels, LLC registered with WY Secretary of State

BWXT announced their upcoming meeting:

BWXT will host a public information session about the proposed facility on Tuesday at the Cam-plex Heritage Center Theater in Gillette. Doors open at 5:30 p.m. with food provided, followed by a presentation at 6 p.m. and a poster session with company representatives answering questions.

“This is our first engagement,” Parker said. “We’ve had discussions with community leaders and stakeholders about this, but it’s now real enough that we’re able to talk at a public level and invite the community out to engage, so that it’s an open discussion.”

The company chose a poster session format rather than an open town hall after observing other community meetings around Wyoming’s emerging nuclear industry, Parker said. The format allows attendees to have one-on-one conversations with around nine BWXT representatives on hand.
