Blue Ribbon Commission on America’s Nuclear Future

The Health Physics Society (HPS) commends the Blue Ribbon Commission on America’s Nuclear Future (the BRC) for undertaking the difficult task of devising a new strategy for the management of spent nuclear fuel and associated high-level waste. The HPS supports those key elements of the strategy proposed in the January 2012 report of the BRC that pertain to ensuring the radiation safety of workers and the public and promoting research in radiation safety.
