PUBLIC SUBMISSION Docket: NRC-2018-0052 Page 1 of 1 As of: 4/6/18 10:22 AM Received: April 06, 2018 Status: Pending_Post Tracking No. lk2-92th-5gpl Comments Due: May 29, 2018 Submission Type: Web Holtec International HI-STORE Consolidated Interim Storage Facility Project Comment On: NRC-2018-0052-0001 Holtec International HI-STORE Consolidated Interim Storage Facility Project Document: NRC-2018-0052-DRAFT-0008 Comment on FR Doc #.2018-06398 Submitter Information Name: Virginia Davis Ge*neral Comment Docket ID NRC-2018- 0052 Southeast New Mexico, has the dubious distinction that every single train car load of high-level radioactive waste will pass through on its way into and out of (ifit ever leaves) Holtec International/Eddy Lea [Counties]
Energy Alliance (ELEA). Eventually importing more irradiated nuclear fuel than currently exists in the U.S.
into s.e. NM, will impact transportation nationwide.
Transporting 100,000 metric tons, or more, of irradiated nuclear fuel to NM makes this proposal even bigger than the highly controversial, unacceptable Yucca Mountain, Nevada permanent burial dump scheme, in terms of transport impacts (limited to 70,000 metric tons under current law).- In that sense, when it comes to radioactive waste transportation risks, we all live in New Mexico. For this reason, only four NRC public comment meetings (three in s.e. NM, and one at the agency's HQ near Washington, D.C.), are woefully inadequate.
Countless millions of Americans, in most states in the Lower 48, would be put at risk by these highly radioactive, irradiated nuclear fuel shipments by train, truck, and/or barge. See, for example, the national transport impacts associated with the proposed Yucca Mountain, Nevada permanent burial dump for highly radioactive waste.
