The 2017 RadWaste Summit will explore the theme, New Priorities, Regulations, and Opportunities as the industry moves into the fourth quarter of the Trump administration and Republican-controlled Congress. The Summit will explore the existing policy, budget allocation, project priorities, and more.
The Trump administration has made it clearer that it is prepared to scrap its predecessor’s strategy for dealing with the nation’s nuclear waste, instead returning focus to the Yucca Mountain repository in Nevada.And, we have outlines of its fiscal 2018 budget proposal, which could point toward its approach on management of tens of thousands of tons of commercial and defense radioactive waste stockpiled around the country.
