Today, UCS is releasing the Phase 2 report of the “Plutonium Disposition Options Independent Assessment” carried out by the Aerospace Corporation. This report, dated August 20, 2015, but only now becoming public, is the second part of a congressionally mandated independent review of the Plutonium Working Group (PWG) report that was released by the Department of Energy in 2014. The PWG was charged with reviewing the options for disposing of tens of tons of plutonium left over from the U.S. nuclear weapons program.

The Phase 1 Aerospace report, which was delivered to Congress in April of this year, analyzed two of the plutonium disposition options that had been studied by the PWG: the MOX fuel option, which is the current baseline, and the “downblend and disposal” option.

The MOX fuel option involves using the plutonium as fuel for commercial nuclear reactors. DOE is currently constructing a plant at the Savannah River Site in South Carolina that would fabricate mixed-oxide (MOX) fuel from the ex-weapons plutonium, but the estimated cost of completing the plant has skyrocketed. Moreover, this option would make the plutonium more accessible to terrorists

USA is downblending, into WIPP, the MOX program is dead.

"Recycling" is dead

Recycling is just getting going. Molten salt. Weinberg was right.

Oh great, the end product is "lead" after a series of death and destruction, you end up with toxic lead.

Recycling is proven to cost too much, and when its MOX it is extremely dangerous, Boom.

Your canards are canards!

Of interest ... Waterford Nuke plant
https://lasinkhole.wordpress.com/2016/05/15/waterford/

On the lower Mississippi River during spring floods there are frequent power outages. This outage wasn't right att the NPP but very close.
What happens is flood water carried big trees and loose barges that crash into flood control spillways.
Louisiana nuke plants are near these spillways.

The argument that nuclear is unsafe because of toxic byproducts that lasts forever is a canard. Everything raxioactive above lead decaysinger to lead. Radioactive byproducts can be transmute in reactors, and the used fuel, dare I say "recycled". Hippie nutjobs will always take nuclear as a sign of big government in their face. Yet another canard. Fukushima had benign radioactive impact on the planet. End of story.
