Earlier this month, the Utah Radiation Control Board was the first state agency to take a stand against EnergySolutions’ plan to import 20,000 tons of nuclear waste from Italy. Now you can make your voice heard, too. The Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC) is taking public comments starting today on EnergySolutions’ request to import nuclear waste from Italy’s defunct reactors. Help us send a message to the NRC that importing another country’s nuclear waste sets a bad precedent for Utah and the U.S. to become the world’s nuclear waste dump and endangers our health, safety, and security. You can email your comments through our web-form here: http://www.healutah.org/energysolutions/ItalianWasteComments You can also mail your comments to: Office of the Secretary, U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission Washington, DC 20555 Attention: Rulemaking and Adjudications The federal government has been at Utah’s door in the recent past, asking for our approval to let nuclear waste or nuclear fallout into our state. But thousands of Utahns turned back Private Fuel Storage’s nuclear waste plan for Skull Valley and thousands more stopped Divine Strake. Now we need to speak out again for the health and safety of our state. Please submit your comment today. Thank you! |
