N.Y. plant to begin storing used fuel in dry casks

N.Y. plant to begin storing used fuel in dry casks
Constellation Energy has all the safety precautions in place for its plan to use dry-cask storage of used nuclear fuel at its Nine Mile Point nuclear plant in New York. "This is for that fuel that has run its life in the reactor core and has been removed from the core, and then it will spend a minimum of five years in the spent-fuel pool before it's moved out to this facility," said Jill Lyons of Constellation Energy.
