[SDCPJ] NRC Nuclear Waste Confidence Meeting in Carlsbad 10/9/13 postponed

We have received word that this meeting is "postponed" ...

We do not know when or if the meeting will be rescheduled.

Here is the NRC's email:

"Due to the lack of an appropriation and the government shutdown, the Waste Confidence Directorate regrets to inform you that we will not be able to hold the two public meetings that were scheduled for next week (San Luis Obispo, California on 10/7; Carlsbad, California, on 10/9). At this time the other meetings now scheduled for future dates are subject to being postponed if the shutdown continues.

When full operations are restored, the Waste Confidence Directorate will send status e-mails, post details on the waste confidence website regarding future meetings and work to determine the best path forward for continuing public participation in the waste confidence rulemaking. This will include consideration of when we can reschedule these meetings, consistent with our commitment to optimize public participation in the process.


Thank you,

Staff of the Nuclear Regulatory Commission
Waste Confidence Directorate"
