Dry Cask Storage Act of 2018

United States · United States Congress · 29 January 2018

Dry Cask Storage Act of 2018 This bill amends the Nuclear Waste Policy Act of 1982 to require each licensee of the Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC) to submit a plan for: (1) transfer (including on-going additional transfers) to spent nuclear fuel dry casks of any spent nuclear fuel stored by the licensee for at least seven years in spent nuclear fuel pools, and (2) configuration of the remaining spent nuclear fuel in the pool in a manner that minimizes the chance of a fire if there is a loss of water in the pool. The NRC must approve or disapprove the plan within 90 days after its submission. The NRC may provide grants to any licensee with an approved plan to assist in the cost of transferring spent nuclear fuel to dry casks under the plan. The bill requires the emergency planning zone applicable to each civilian nuclear power reactor to be at least 10 miles in radius until all spent nuclear fuel at the reactor has been transferred to dry casks. The NRC must expand to 50 miles in radius the emergency planning zone applicable to each reactor not in compliance with an approved plan. The licensee is responsible for all costs associated with the expansion. The Department of the Treasury must transfer annually to the NRC, to pay the costs of the grants program, 10% of the interest generated during the preceding fiscal year from investments of the Nuclear Waste Fund.

Question 990 — énergie et carburants

France · National Assembly · 8 December 2017

M. Christian Hutin interroge M. le ministre d'État, ministre de la transition écologique et solidaire, sur l'avenir du centre de production nucléaire de Gravelines. En effet, les différentes annonces concernant la réduction de la part du nucléaire dans le bouquet énergétique français créent de nombreuses interrogations industrielles ainsi qu'au niveau de l'emploi. Il est envisagé la fermeture d'une "tranche", c'est-à-dire de deux réacteurs d'une puissance de 930 mégawatts chacun sur le site de Gravelines. C'est l'ensemble de l'économie dunkerquoise et de la région des Hauts-de-France qui sera directement affecté par une telle mesure, si elle est prise. De telles annonces nous mettent en difficulté car elles créent une forte incertitude sur l'approvisionnement en électricité, abondante, peu chère et décarbonée. Par ailleurs, l'excellence du personnel et les capacités d'investissement d'EDF sont pour le territoire un atout considérable. Les opérations "post-Fukushima" et de grand carénage représentent un investissement de 4 à 5 milliards d'euros et sont un puissant vecteur d'attractivité pour le littoral et le grand port maritime de Dunkerque. Le député rappelle également l'excellence française dans le domaine du nucléaire, dont l'intérêt au niveau mondial ne se dément pas. Il est, à ses yeux, indispensable de sortir de ces ambiguïtés qui nous affaiblissent. Il souhaite donc connaître les mesures qu'il compte prendre afin de sécuriser l'avenir de la centrale nucléaire de Gravelines, pour les emplois et la capacité industrielle qui doivent se développer.
