It does not make any sense to "sequester" nuclear waste in canisters with a life of 25 - 40 years when the half life of some of the radioactive waste is up to 70,000 years....then another 70,000 years for a 1/2 life reduction again, and on and on.

The following statement is from the World Surf League who has more specifics about this issue:

"There's a plan to bury over 3.5 million pounds of radioactive waste (spent fuel) less than 200 yards from the shoreline at the Page 1 of 205/30/2018https://www.fdms.gov/

fdms/getcontent?object Id=090000648330a47 c&format=xml&showorig=false decommissioned San Onofre Nuclear Gene rating Station (SONGS). While Southern California Edison (SCE) is insisting that their solution is safe, local watc hdog groups are sounding alarms about the canisters that will hold the radioactive fuel, which has a half-life of 70,000 years. While the canisters are gua ranteed for 25 years, the concrete structures they'll be stored in are only good for 10, an d if those structures fail then the guarantee on th e cannisters is voided."I realize that nuclear energy was once thought of as a safe altern ative to fossil fuels, but it is obvious that the plan was never

thoroughly vetted for "wha t happens" when the nu clear plant fails to function AND where do you store its waste for the

thousands of years it takes for it to disintegrate This is a serious national problem - think Fukushima - where the Japanese

continue on a daily basis to at tempt to cool the nuclear wast e that was unleashed in an earthquake years ago. I suggest that

your Commission seriously address this issue and come up with a workab le plan to store ALL nuclear waste from nuclear power plants in a safe, inert, stable environmen t - if there is such a place on our planet....and then DISCONTINUE using all nuclear power plants and switch to renewable ener gies for a safer future for mankind. Thank you.Page 2 of 205/30/2018https://www.fdms.gov/
