Decision Summary
The appeal was dismissed because the petitioner failed to establish eligibility for a national interest waiver under the Dhanasar framework. The Director raised issues regarding the petitioner's potentially unauthorized use of specific software (MCNP code) and an attempt to materially change the proposed endeavor after filing. While the AAO withdrew some of the Director's specific findings, it ultimately agreed with the conclusion to deny the petition.
