$UCLE US Nuclear Forced to Expand Its Ohio Production Floor and Shipment Volume to Keep Up With the Surge of Incoming Orders
https://www.globenewswire.com/en/news-release/2024/08/19/2932101/0/en/US-Nuclear-Forced-to-Expand-Its-Ohio-Production-Floor-and-Shipment-Volume-to-Keep-Up-With-the-Surge-of-Incoming-Orders.html
LOS ANGELES, CA, Aug. 19, 2024 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- To help keep up with surging incoming purchase orders, US Nuclear Corp. (OTC: UCLE) is now significantly expanding their Overhoff (Ohio) production floor area to increase shipment volume. This is necessary due to increasingly high demand for their famous tritium monitors. This is all caused by the AI nuclear energy boom and the big money, worldwide scramble to design and build the long awaited fusion energy generators that we are all waiting for.
For these reasons, USN is in the process of reorganizing one of the company’s subsidiaries, Electronic Control Concepts (ECC), thus improving efficiency and shipment volume amongst its subsidiaries.
ECC is one of US Nuclear’s newer divisions and specializes in manufacturing high-quality x-ray calibration and measurement instrumentation for x-ray machines globally. US Nuclear acquired ECC back in 2016 and moved production from New York to the company’s Overhoff Technology Corp. division in Milford, OH which manufactures tritium monitoring instrumentation. However, this move also shifted some of Overhoff’s resources to production of ECC instrumentation. Now, with Overhoff receiving a rising influx of new purchase orders, US Nuclear has decided to shift production of ECC equipment to its Technical Associates subsidiary in Canoga Park, CA.
This move will greatly benefit all of the company’s main branches. First and most importantly, it will free up resources at Overhoff to improve shipment volume and keep up with surging new orders. On the other side, Technical Associates has excess manufacturing capacity allowing for the flawless integration of ECC instrumentation production and further boost to its California shipment volume.
The move is already in the process and will be effective in the near future, providing an enormous boost to US Nuclear’s efficiency and shipments.

$UCLE US Nuclear Helps America Navigate the PFAS Ingestion Crisis
https://www.newmediawire.com/news/us-nuclear-helps-america-navigate-the-pfas-ingestion-crisis-7075097
LOS ANGELES, CA - (NewMediaWire) - May 20, 2024 - With toxic PFAS contaminants being found and ingested across the nation in everything from household products to soil, drinking water, air, and even throughout the food chain, US Nuclear (OTC-QB: UCLE) has launched a groundbreaking solution to help address this pervasive crisis. US Nuclear leveraged its new, cutting-edge technology to develop a rapid, highly sensitive PFAS monitor that can measure PFAS contamination down to an amazing 1 part per trillion in less than a few minutes, which is well below the EPA’s strict new limit of 4ppt.
Less than a month ago, the EPA issued the first ever standard for targeting PFAS contamination, requiring companies to reduce and monitor PFAS levels down to the lowest limit possible which is 4ppt. With the new rules in effect and with public concern about PFAS spreading, there is a drastic need for more testing, especially as PFAS contamination continues to be found in new sites across the nation. Alarmingly, high-levels of PFAS chemicals are being found across the entire food chain, including in mammals, birds, fish, vegetables, as well as in popular processed foods.
US Nuclear’s innovative PFAS monitor can be used by water utilities, private well, home, or farm owners, and water quality testing organizations to identify trace amounts of PFAS contamination in water or in air, onsite, enabling continuous monitoring and swift, targeted remediation without having to wait days or weeks for laboratory a report. In addition, US Nuclear’s monitors can measure and identify other common drinking water contaminants, such as arsenic and uranium, offering a comprehensive analysis to ensure safety.
“We are proud to introduce a PFAS monitoring system which can measure trace levels of PFAS on-the-spot within minutes, instead of relying on the time-consuming process of taking a sample and sending it to a lab for analysis,” commented Bob Goldstein, CEO of US Nuclear Corp. “Our technology represents a significant advancement for monitoring and tracking PFAS contamination, providing Americans with the tools they need to safeguard their health and resources.”

$UCLE US Nuclear's Unparalleled PFAS Monitoring Products in Spotlight as EPA Sets First-Ever Limits on PFAS
https://www.newmediawire.com/news/us-nuclear-s-unparalleled-pfas-monitoring-products-in-spotlight-as-epa-sets-first-ever-limits-on-pfas-7074059
LOS ANGELES, CA - (NewMediaWire) - April 15, 2024 - On Wednesday, April 10, 2024 the White House issued the first-ever national drinking water standard that will require water utilities to drastically reduce the levels of toxic PFAS forever chemicals down to the lowest levels that can reliably be measured. Fortunately, US Nuclear (OTC-QB: UCLE) has long been aware of the dangers of PFAS, and has already developed the world’s first on-the-spot PFAS monitor that can measure PFOA and PFOS down to 1 ppt (parts per Trillion) in less than a few minutes, which is well below the EPA’s limit of 4 ppt. Using US Nuclear’s innovative monitors, water utilities and private well owners, can right now, on-the-spot, make the needed tests and then periodically or continuously monitor PFAS contamination thereafter, versus the time consuming and expensive process of taking each sample and sending it out to a lab for analysis.
PFAS is ubiquitous even in our rainwater. It is said that “PFAS chemicals now contaminate virtually all Americans at birth.” With the new legally enforceable standard in effect, water utilities that don’t currently monitor for PFAS will have 3 years or less to complete initial measurement surveys. And they must inform the public of the level of PFAS measured. If PFAS is detected in violation of the EPA’s new limits, the utility companies must purchase and install new technologies (such as US Nuclear’s equipment) to monitor/reduce PFAS in their drinking water. The Biden administration has already identified about 6-10% of water utilities believed to be in violation, and to exceed the new limits and need to make changes, leading to healthier and safer drinking water for over one hundred million people.
The EPA also announced that an additional $1 billion in federal funding is newly available to help municipal water utilities, owners of private wells, all water suppliers and water treatment plants to implement PFAS monitoring and treatment solutions. This funding is part of a $9 billion investment package through the Bipartisan Infrastructure Law to help communities tackle PFAS contamination, and an additional $21 billion is available for general drinking water improvements which includes monitoring and treating PFAS contamination, as well as for the many other toxic chemical, biological and radiological contaminants often found in drinking water which US Nuclear instruments can also monitor. This is an unprecedented amount of funding being allocated to measure and treat PFAS contamination, and US Nuclear is in a prime position to capitalize on this funding with their revolutionary PFAS monitoring products.
