In June 2023 the Department of Energy (DOE) announced 13 awardees for work with communities interested in DOE's community-centered approach to storing and disposing of spent nuclear fuel, a process known as consent-based siting. It has now been a year into the program, and the panel session will discuss progress to date. Panelists will include representatives of DOE and some of the awardee teams.
