Cerro Grande Fire remains burned into New Mexico's memory 20 years later

This is a reason that the Holtec/ELEA CISF targeted at NM is one environmental justice burden too many. So too the WCS/ISP CISF targeted at the NM border at Eunice, just a mile or so into TX. NM has suffered enough from the nuclear industry already.
NM has too long shouldered too many EJ burdens -- nuclear, fossil fuel, and other hazards. For this reason alone, the Holtec/ELEA CISF is a non-starter, as yet another, major, EJ violation. So too is the WCS/ISP CISF in TX, a mile or so from the NM border at Eunice.
