Experts from the Nuclear Energy Institute, Joe Pollock, executive director of Fukushima coordination, and Marshall Cohen, senior director, state and local government affairs, will update state policymakers on the steps the U.S. nuclear energy industry is taking to ensure that U.S. reactors could respond to events that may challenge safe operation. They also will provide an outlook on nuclear power, discuss the current status of nuclear-related policies in the U.S. and provide an update on the status of moving nuclear waste to volunteer storage sites.
