Holtec International was awarded the license to Oyster Creek atomic reactor and ownership of its irradiated nuclear fuel by a U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC) rubber-stamp. Holtec has also proposed to transport the highly radioactive wastes to southeastern New Mexico, for so-called "consolidated interim storage" (CIS). NRC is poised to rubber-stamp that, too.
But as with the Oyster Creek license transfer, there is widespread resistance to the Holtec CIS Facility opening in NM.
