Notes


Safe long-term storage of spent nuclear fuel in the New Mexico desert. 110 acres of this site is enough land to hold 10,000 casks, each containing about 17.4 tons of used nuclear fuel. If the United States were to produce all its electricity from nuclear power, this area could hold at least 12 years of used fuel.
