Dry Cask Radwaste Storage Issues - Donna Gilmore
Channel: MsMilkytheclown1
Date: 2014-11-25

This is SanOnofreSafety.org founder Donna Gilmore's presentation to the NRC on dry cask nuclear waste storage issues, delivered by invitation as part of an NRC Regulatory Conference held Nov. 19-20, 2014 in Rockville, Maryland.

Why are the NRC and Southern California Edison favoring inferior, short-lived, thin-walled, unsafe stainless steel canisters to store San Onofre's tons of nuclear waste in a corrosive seaside environment instead of the long-lasting, thick-walled, top-of-the-line technology available?

Gilmore presents a strong case for regulators and utilities to take the lead in setting the highest possible standards for America's growing inventory of radioactive waste that will remain deadly for hundreds of thousands of years longer than human civilization has yet existed.

With no safe long-term storage sites having been found despite over half a century of attempts to find them, Gilmore urges officials not to 'play bureaucratic roulette' with the future of California and the rest of the nation. http://youtu.be/KvAbDX0R2Eg?list=UUju14A1OKOPVSZNLJLsI1qw
