NRC To Conduct Skull Valley Nuclear Waste Hearing
The Nuclear Regulatory Commission's Atomic Safety and Licensing Board will conduct two sessions May 29 on the application of Private Fuel Storage, LLC to build and operate a temporary above-ground storage facility for spent nuclear fuel on the Goshute Reservation about 50 miles southwest of Salt Lake City. The hearing will be held in Rockville, MD. PFS has requested the Board to issue a license for a smaller facility than originally proposed, falling below the aircraft crash hazard threshold.
