Wait what? Spent nuclear fuel on the trains (“even with a derailment the canisters will not break”) – HA! Carbon free energy by 2035 (umm, for irradiated people?)
Thank you Michelle! As long as we depend on nuclear fuel we will not push for REAL clean energy!
28 Republiklans and 5 Demo thought HOLTEC and “interim” (read temporary) storage of high-level public power utility spent fuel waste was a good idea for the Military Colony of New Mexico. This measure failed last session and if we are not vigilant, it could be repealed by future legislatures. The fight continues to keep DOE from expanding the WIPP (Waste Isolation Pilot Project) in size, scope, and duration.
