Nuclear Issues Workgroup

GNEP. One of the primary issues being addressed by the Nuclear Issues workgroup is GNEP (Global Nuclear Energy Partnership). This plan by the administration would bring tens of thousands of truckloads of nuclear waste from around the nation to one location, likely South Carolina's Savannah River Site, to be reprocessed. The plan would create new fuel rods from the reprocessed plutonium and leave the waste, including millions of gallons of liquid waste with the site that is selected for this reprocessing.

Nuclear Weapons.The government has presented repeated proposals to start industrial-scale production of new nuclear weapons. This has been promoted under the plan called "Complex 2030" and "Reliable Replacement Warheads".

Nuclear Renaissance. The nuclear industry with the help of the administration has been using the same methods of deception to promote nuclear power that was used to promote the War in Iraq, and it has been working.
