Live from NPR News in Washington, I'm Rylan Barton. In Minneapolis, the two immigration officers involved in Saturday's

deadly shooting of 37-year-old Alex Preddy are on an administrative leave. NPR's Jimenez-Bustillo reports

Customs and Border Protection says this is standard protocol. The announcement comes after CBP's initial

review found that the officers shot Preddy after he resisted their efforts to take him into custody.

The agency's preliminary assessment contradicted the Trump administration's first narrative about the shooting,

which accused Prattie of, quote, domestic terrorism and brandishing his weapon.

It is not immediately clear how long the officers leave will last.

CBP and state officials are both

investigating the shooting. It is also under review by the Office of the Inspector General

at the Department of Homeland Security. Higmenabustillo, NPR News, Washington.

Officials at the Department of Energy say they will make public a set of new rules for nuclear

reactors. As NPR's Jeff Brumfield reports, the announcement

came after NPR published a story about their existence. The rules are being used for the development

of a new generation of nuclear reactors. They were written over the past six months, but their

existence wasn't publicly known about until NPR obtained copies. The new rules appeared to loosen standards

for groundwater contamination and slash hundreds of pages and security requirements for the reactors.

In a statement NPR, the Energy Department defended the changes, saying they reduced unnecessary

regulation and helped innovation without jeopardizing safety.

The agency says it had shared the rule changes with companies as part of a, quote, iterative process and that it intends to make them public later this year.
