Feds Hold Meeting in Georgia about Nuclear Waste Storage to Generate Public Opinion

摘要

Federal officials held a meeting in Georgia about nuclear-waste storage because of the area's involvement with the issue. "We tried to pick regions of the country that have some familiarity," John Kotek, the Department of Energy's acting assistant secretary for nuclear energy, said in an interview. The meeting wasn't about where to store waste generated by reactors. Instead, it was to get public input on how to decide where to store it.
