Fighting Nuclear Waste in Texas
A Private Company by the name of AFCI Texas, LLC formed by Bill Jones, a Texas Parks and Wildlife Commissioner, and Monty Humble in 2008 as a storage waste facility company. In its 7 years of existence AFCI Texas, LLC has not built a single nuclear storage site.
The facility being proposed would store High-Level Nuclear Waste in dry cask storage in above ground containers, a method that was designed in the early 1980's as an alternative to reactor pools. It is thought to be one of the first of its kind because the other 65 similar facilities are all located at existing nuclear reactor sites.
