Native American Forum on Nuclear Issues
Abstract:
The United States currently faces a nuclear waste crisis. According to a 2002 report by former Secretary of Energy Spencer Abraham, “We have a staggering amount of radioactive waste in this country.”1 The Department of Energy (DOE) estimates that by 2035 the U.S. will have approximately 115,000 metric tons of high-level nuclear waste, which exceeds the capacity of the proposed federal storage site at Yucca Mountain.2 Deciding where and how to store nuclear waste is a significant nuclear, environmental, and health policy issue. The decisions that we make about nuclear waste siting greatly impact the future of nuclear technologies …

Native American Forum on Nuclear Issues
Abstract:
-Why Nuclear Energy?
-The lesson of the last 20 years in U.S. electricity policy:
– Diversified fuel and technology portfolio is essential
– All fuels and technologies (nuclear, coal, natural gas, renewables, efficiency) have a legitimate role
-The challenge for the future:
– Preserving/restoring diversified portfolio
– Ensuring resource adequacy, particularly in competitive markets
-Expanded use of nuclear energy is part of the answer
– Integrated used fuel management supports nuclear competitiveness
