Energy Dept. taking steps to establish used nuclear fuel repository
The
Energy Department is trying a new approach to establish a used nuclear
fuel repository, part of which includes seeking consent from ideal
candidates that may be interested in hosting a permanent storage site,
writes James Conca. The department is also handling a study in North
Dakota of a disposal method where waste is lowered into a deep borehole.
The borehole is then filled with several layers of special materials. Forbes
