Blue Ribbon Commission Report: Hearing to Receive Testimony on the Final Report of the Blue Ribbon Commission on America's Nuclear Future - Tapa blanda

Sinopsis

The committee meets this morning to hear about the recommendations of the Blue Ribbon Commission on nuclear waste. The issue of nuclear waste, as the Chairman has mentioned, and the management has been frustrating Congress, multiple administrations, utilities, ratepayers, clearly for decades now. Efforts to address it through the Nuclear Waste Policy Act of 1982, and the 1987 amendments remain unresolved. Taxpayers thus far have paid over $2 billion in damages resulting from the government's failure to take title to the used nuclear fuel. Department of Energy estimates that if title were to be taken by the year 2021, the total liability incurred would be just over $13 billion.
