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.

Responsibility for waste management transport, storage, and disposal would be managed by this corporation rather than the Department of Energy.
