Session Chair:
Evan Gonzalez (Lawrence Livermore National Lab)
Panelists for this session will share their perspectives on the state of environmental justice efforts in nuclear siting. With representation from a range of viewpoints (academic researchers, government agencies, think tanks, and affected peoples), we hope to provide various frames of our industry’s progress towards enabling just and equitable nuclear facility siting. Along the way, we will be asking the questions: What does an environmentally-just siting process look like? What strategies are working towards getting us there? How do we know we’re making progress? Where are our biggest gaps as nuclear professionals?
