PLEASE SIGN PETITION BELOW

MORATORIUM ON MOVING WASTE TO TEMPORARY WASTE CANS

• We need your help to pressure the NRC to institute a MORATORIUM on the nuclear industry using thin 1/2 inch to 5/8 inch, single-wall nuclear waste cans without any plan to upgrade these to double-wall containers with 7/24 electronic monitoring.
• We will be including your signature in the official submission to the NRC.

• The details of our plan can be read here: HelmsProposal
• We need ORGANIZATIONS to support this too.

• The map in the "Lesson Learned?" meme is located here: https://www.nrc.gov/docs/ML1723/ML17233A125.pdf
• The colors: Purple means the ISFSI (independent spent fuel storage installation) is not within the isolation area of the plant, or is constructed separately. Some were licensed but have no fuel in them yet. The green ones are right next to a power plant. Interestingly, Diablo Canyon constructed their ISFSI up the hill quite a ways from the plant and pretty far from the water, relatively speaking, so it is purple.
