STOP FOREVER WIPP!
Public Comments Needed NOW!
CCNS is part of the Stop Forever WIPP Coalition. https://www.facebook.com/StopfvrWipp/ Together we are launching a four-week campaign to educate and encourage folks to submit a public comment letter about the DOE’s plans to bring up to 48.2 metric tons of “surplus” plutonium to WIPP. This proposal is part of DOE’s plans to keep WIPP open forever.
We’ve prepared two sample comment letters for your use: a one-pager is available is HERE and a longer one is available HERE.
Comments are due to DOE on or before Monday, February 1, 2021.
Thank you for your participation!
This is a special project, if you appreciate it, please contribute to help support future projects.

Please contact the Senate Judiciary Committee Chair Chuck Grassley (R-IA) and Minority Ranking Member Dianne Feinstein (D-CA) and ask them to set the date for the RECA Oversight Hearing. Knowing the September hearing date will allow us to properly prepare for the hearing. The hearing will be televised on C-SPAN and on the Judiciary Committee’s website.
