Ask your local nuclear operator the following questions:
1) How much nuclear waste do you store on site?
2) What distance(s) from active reactor to waste storage?
3) How much such storage is necessary for power generation?
4) If you could easily offload your nuclear waste, how many tons would you give up?
Nuclear power plants also are nuclear waste dumps. Answers to these questions easily show the nuclear industry is critically suboptimal, dirty and highly dangerous. Fukushima was not a sufficient lesson?
Demand "mile minimum" between waste dump & nuclear reactor. Hundreds of miles is better. Investors in the nuclear industry lump their waste dumps beside 'hot' reactors to minimize complaints - fewer sites, less complaint. Their short term convenience & profit-taking breeds disaster.
