U.S. nuclear industry slowed by its own waste
In this mention
The U.S. nuclear industry faces delays in building new reactors due to the lack of a long-term solution for storing radioactive waste. The Nuclear Regulatory Commission has halted approval of new nuclear projects until waste storage is resolved. Sara Barczak of the Southern Alliance for Clean Energy emphasizes that waste management has become an environmental, public health, and security concern.
