Illinois urged federal action on nuclear waste policy
Dr. Paul Q. Peterson of the Illinois Department of Public Health urged Rep. Ryan and the Environment Subcommittee to enact a technically sound national policy on storage disposal and reprocessing of nuclear material. He cited Sheffield and Morris facilities, detailed extensive monitoring and inspections since 1967 and 1973, and criticized NRC for delaying license reviews while noting no health hazard evidence. He urged legislation and warned Illinois cannot bear perpetual care alone.
