PUBLIC SUBMISSION As of: 10/12/18 6:51 AM Received: October 11, 2018 Status: Pending_Post Tracking No. 1k2-95x8-tieu Comments Due: October 19, 2018 Submission Type: Web Docket: NRC-2016-0231 Waste Control Specialists LLC's Consolidated Interim Spent Fuel Storage Facility Project Comment On: NRC-2016-0231-0187 Interim Storage Partners LLCs Consolidated Interim Spent Fuel Storage Facility Document: NRC-2016-0231-DRAFT-0213 Comment on FR Doc # 2018-19058 Submitter Information Name: Elizabeth Schwartz General Comment Waste Control Specialists (WCS) in West Texas seeks to open a de facto permanent parking lot dump for up to half the commercial high-level radioactive waste in the U.S., upstream of the Ogallala Aquifer, vital drinking and irrigation water supply for numerous High Plains states, from Texas to South Dakota.

The region around WCS has a high proportion of low income, Latin American residents, and is already heavily burdened with nuclear activities (radioactive waste dumping, uranium enrichment, etc.) and dirty fossil fuel industries (widespread, heavily polluting oil extraction and natural gas fracking). WCS would launch unprecedented numbers of high-risk irradiated nuclear fuel train (and even barge) shipments through many states.
