This audio was recorded from phone conference call. I apologize for the quality and that the very first part of the call was not recorded. (We are still learning how to do this!) But it is pretty important that we document what they are doing because the NRC does not record nor produce a transcript.

This facility is apparently mostly targeting the use of Areva NUHOMS (Horizontal) design canisters and they say no high-burnup or damaged fuel will be stored. I'm sure that once they get the initial approval, then that will come down the pike no matter what.
