Used with permission  from Karen Hadden, SEED Coalition, Austin, TX.As tweeted by Protect the Basin,   the Andrews County, Texas Commissioner's Court "requests that the NRC   [U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission] immediately cease the licensing of   interim storage of spent nuclear fuel in Andrews County and that it   faithfully observes the right of the people of Andrews County and the   State of TX to approve or reject a national interim SNF [spent nuclear   fuel] storage facility." The Commissioner's Court resolution goes on to state "the Andrews County Judge and Commissioners Court   hereby reject the proposed siting of SNF waste in Andrews County,   Texas." The unanimous resolution came in response to a groundswell of local public opposition to the proposed high-level radioactive waste dump. Consent-based siting is clearly lacking.
