Safe disposal has been all talk and little do for as far back as I can recall. Maybe the "Safe Storage of Radiological Materials Act of 2005" bill will tip the scales in the right direction (to my knowledge it has not passed Congress yet, has it?). Maybe it's just more talk never to become action. The proof will be in the pudding and I hope your optimism is justified.

The reason there is no plan of safe disposal and that we don't do what every other Nuclear naton does: reprocess spent fuel ad infinitum, is that we are planning to put this spent fuel into Nuclear weapons [some day]. Get it?

That and much more is outlined in the energy bill (HR 6).

Go to this site and read about the new generation of reactors being designed. They are far different than 3-Mile and of more variety.
