Letter from 86 Organizations to Vice President Pence: Urgent Actions Required to Mitigate COVID-19 Impacts in Nuclear Energy Industry

As posted on the NIRS website. This letter, sent by Beyond Nuclear and 85 allied groups, was submitted on Earth Day's 50th anniversary, April 22, 2020.

One of the issues raised is impacts of Covid-19 on nuclear power plant emergency preparedness. After all, a mass evacuation, as into evacuation shelters, does not jibe with stay-at-home, stay-safe, shelter-in-place orders in effect in many states due to the Covid-19 pandemic.
