NRC has announced call-in verbal public comment meetings on its Interim Storage Partners Draft Environmental Impact Statement. The consolidated interim storage facility (CISF) for highly radioactive wastes is in Andrews County, west Texas, just 40 miles across the NM/TX border from Holtec's CISF. The call-in/webinar meetings are scheduled soon -- all times Eastern: Thursday, October 1, 6-9pm; Tuesday, October 6, 2-5pm; Thursday, October 8, 6-9pm; Thursday, October 15, 11am-2pm. See Beyond Nuclear's sample comments, which you can use to help prepare your own. The SEED Coalition of Austin, TX has a webform you can use to submit written comments to NRC. Written comments are due November 3 (Election Day). Please take action to help block this dump!
