re: #37 Gus 802

Two words of course come into play: Yucca Mountain. That and the refusal to allow the recycling of nuclear material by the DOE. It’s not really a refusal it’s the law.

There seems to be resistance to solar and wind projects as well. Not to be cynical (which I am naturally) but that adds to the delay of even those projects. Right now the studies for the offshore project in NJ will take 2 years. The American Littoral Society is calling for additional studies however the Sierra Club is supporting it all the way.

Yeah, the NIMBY factor is another insane thing that needs to be overcome.
