Report: New recommendations for nuclear waste
Today, a bipartisan group of experts including energy consultant Lake Barrett and former NRC chair Allison Macfarlane have published a report titled The Path Forward for Nuclear Waste in the U.S.
The report recommends a new solution for managing domestic nuclear waste—one that centers around the foundation of an independent corporation led by reactor owners. Responsibility for waste management transport, storage, and disposal would be managed by this corporation rather than the Department of Energy.

Fifteen years ago, the ANS Young Members Group was created to give a home and a voice to early career members of the society as they made the transition from students to members of the professional community. Join us as we celebrate the 15-year anniversary of YMG with our panel of past and present ANS leaders and founding members of YMG. We reflect on the growth of YMG, the importance of young members within ANS and the nuclear community, and how our voice has shaped the society. We'll look ahead to the future of ANS and how young members can continue to drive the changes they want to see. The celebration continues at Aunt Chilada's immediately following the panel, 5pm-6pm! https://www.ans.org/meetings/wm2022/calendar/event-676/
