What Happened:
Discussed how they plan to locate a new Deep Geological Repository site either in Region 1 or Region 7. Right now they are drilling and testing the rocks and if there is water movement under these rocks the site will not work. We also talked about the travel of the Nuclear pellets either by trucks or by rail the site – will not be ready for about 20 years but they still need to plan these. They will continue to update us on their progress
