The scheme could result in a de facto permanent, surface storage, "parking lot" dump amidst Hispanic communities in the Texas/New Mexico borderlands. These communities are already badly polluted by toxic fossil fuel, and radioactive nuclear, industrial activities. This "nuclear sacrifice zone" environmental injustice, or radioactive racism, must be stopped!

If opened, the Holtec/ELEA centralized interim storage facility (CISF) would launch unprecedented thousands, or even tens of thousands, of highly radioactive waste shipments -- by truck, train, and/or barge, on roads, rails, and/or waterways, through most states -- over the course of several long decades.
