February 11, 2022 – As a public service, public Watchdogs has published this independently recorded copy of the Southern California Edison Community Engagement Panel presentation, yesterday, February 10, 2022. Edison hosted Dr. Kim Petry, the Acting Deputy Assistant Secretary for the Department of Energy (DOE).
Dr. Petry discussed consent-based siting for federally approved temporary radioactive nuclear waste dumps. These facilities are known as Consolidated Interim Storage or “CIS.” As Dr. Petry explains, the DOE has not yet determined what “consent” actually looks like.
