Beyond Nuclear asks for our help needed by July 23rd
to stop NRC insanity   

Action alert from Dave Lochbaum, Director, Nuclear Safety Project, Union of Concerned Scientists (UCS):

The U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC) is proposing to set aside federal regulations and deprive members of the public their legal rights by using a letter to the Nuclear Energy Institute (NEI) to permit nuclear plant owners to experiment with new fuel pellets and fuel rods in the nuclear power reactors in your backyards without prior NRC review and approval, and without your getting a chance to agree or disagree with the experiment.

Suffice it to say that UCS opposes this NRC notion.

On June 7, 2018, the NRC opened a 20-day public comment period on their draft letter to NEI giving away the store.

On behalf of UCS, I requested an extension of the public comment period. The NRC processed the request to extend it before June 27th, the original deadline.

But the NRC reopened the public comment period this morning and it will remain open until July 23, 2018.

Please let the NRC know that you DO NOT approve of plant owners conducting unreviewed and unapproved fuel experiments in your backyards!

It is easy to do and can be done in moments online. MORE.

Please take 10 minutes to comment on this important issue!
Thank you !
