PUBLIC SUBMISSION As of: 7/5/18 6:56 AM Received: July 04, 2018 Status: Pending_Post Tracking No. 1k2-9433-lw10 Comments Due: July 30, 2018 Submission Type: Web Docket: NRC-2018-0052 Holtec International HI-STORE Consolidated Interim Storage Facility Project Comment On: NRC-2018-0052-0058 Holtec International HI-STORE Consolidated Interim Storage Facility Project Document: NRC-2018-0052-DRAFT-0161 Comment on FR Doc # 2018-10418 Submitter Information Name: Eve Adams General Comment I am against the proposal for a High-Level Radioactive Waste storage facility, which would store the nations most dangerous nuclear reactor waste in Southeast New Mexico. This is high-level nuclear waste, which is dangerous the radiation from it is invisible: you cannot feel or taste it, and it could lead to potential birth defects, cancer, or death. The second concern, is that transporting this waste is potentially life threatening, if the waste spills. It could cost billions of taxpayer dollars if they could manage to clean it up and a spill would result in ruining the land of New Mexico which will certainly impact generations to come. The rails they would be using to transport this waste can only carry up to 143 tons per rail car and the rail cars Holtec and ELEA would be using would weigh up to 210 tons. Transporting this waste opens the potentiality of accidents, leaks, and terrorist actions, currently there are no security plans or emergency plans made for incidents like these. The waste could travel near waterways and through major cities as well as tribal lands.
Citizens of NM don't want to be the dumping ground for such dangerous materials.
