Just a technical point, and I hope Lissa chimes in because I'm not that familiar with the technology. Rather than one recovery point in Yucca mountain, which would involve shipping radioactive material to and from nuclear plants throughout the country, I think local recovery points would be safer. If the technology is not too expensive, and it might not be if the process is standardized and the tools are built 100 at a time instead of individually, there could even be one recovery site per nuclear plant. That would eliminate almost all the risks of transportation and reduce the need for additional security.

I could live with that. It makes good sense to keep the hot stuff where there are people who are equipped, and know how to handle it.
