[External_Sender] Docket ID NRC-2016-0231 I join all those Americans in opposition to Waste Control Specialists (WCS) in West Texas, which seeks to open a de facto permanent parking lot dump for up to half the commercial high-level radioactive waste in the U.S. This site is 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.
WCS's plan is a disaster in the making, both short and long-term, in terms of both the transportation and storage issues. It is irresponsible and blatantly prejudiced in its design and goals.
I urge the NRC to reject this proposal.
Sincerely, LEStone
