Plutonium and related hot waste created from fission reactions have half lives so great that no storage system is sufficient to protect from human inhalation of matter that can irradiate tissue for lifetimes. The best system available must be used to kick the can down the road as far as possible; otherwise one is simply prodding the can with a stick. .

We can't afford to do anything but the safest approach. In retrospect, the cost would seem a petty obstacle if an accident happened. I would also join the fight to hold those responsible accountable.

The short-term and the long-term dangers are far too great.

This is the existential threat about which all we San Clementeans live in denial. And the potential disasters inherent in doing this poorly involve all of Southern California—in fact our whole country. Let's do it right—for ourselves and, especially, for our kids and grandkids.

This is more than a dangerous situation. Keeping the toxic waste so close to neighborhoods, traffic corridors and the ocean is a disaster in the making.

For obvious reasons - dangerous to human bodies.

Have the federal government use the process available to turn the wage into enert glass chips - do not bury this in the ocean ever

It seems so obvious, San Onofre is NOT a safe place to store nuclear waste.

Closing down San Onofre was a great step toward protecting such a populous area located in an active seismic zone from a nuclear disaster. But it will all be for naught if the spent fuel rods are stored there. We are still in danger. Thank you, Gary and all, for your hard work and dedication to get this critical step accomplished.

Please, for the sake of everyone, not just San Clemente residents, let's find a better place to store nuclear waste than San Onofre State Beach!

Perfect example of why nuclear is Bad. Who wants the hazardous waste. No One!! Especially not along our coast line. Earth quakes , etc.

A nuclear waste dump storage does not belong in a highly populated area already situated on a major earthquake fault line. Period!

It is important to our residents that this waste material is moved to a safe location somewhere else.

Yes make Edison accountable for this. Their actions are unconscionable and hurting our health and environment

Please make restitution for the prior mistake made by approving a hazardous energy plant right next to one of our State's most crucial rail and road transportation corridors by revoking the permit to permanently store 1800 tons of high level radioactive waste generated over the history of this plant.

Find another place for storage. You've had many years to do so. I knew the original plan probably did not provide for safe disposal elsewhere. Shame on you

Please rewrite your permit to have a more viable solution to removing the the dangerous and poorly constructed nuclear waste canisters at San Onofre. Our community is at risk!
