UPDATE SEPT. 6, 2015:

AND IF YOU READ, PASS IT ON...NOT THE HEMLOCK TEA ROOM LINK, BUT THE LINKS BELOW!
I DON'T CARE IF ONLY I READ HERE, IT NEEDS TO BE PASSED ON SO PEOPLE CAN GO AND LEAVE COMMENTS FOR THE DAMNABLE NRC!
AS I POSTED BEFORE, THE NUCLEAR REGULATORY COMMISSION IS CONSIDERING RAISING THE "ACCEPTABLE" LEVELS OF IONIZING RADIATION FOR ALL OF US SO WE CAN PERHAPS EXPERIENCE THE JOY OF GLOWING IN THE DARK AND BATTLING CANCER.
IF YOU GIVE A DAMN ABOUT YOUR FAMILY, FRIENDS, OR YOURSELF, TELL THE NRC AND TELL THEM IN NO UNCERTAIN TERMS THAT RAISING LEVELS IS NOT ACCEPTABLE!
THEY HAVE EXTENDED THE DEADLINE FOR YOUR COMMENTS TO NOVEMBER 19, 2015.

PLEASE THINK ABOUT IT.
THIS IS SERIOUS, PEOPLE.
READ THE IDEOLOGY BEHIND THIS FARCE <HERE> AND SEE IF YOU AGREE THAT RADIATION IS "GOOD FOR US".
IF AMERICANS USED THEIR COLLECTIVE VOICE AND TOOK ACTION ON SUCH AS THIS, WE'D SEE CHANGE THAT WOULD BENEFIT US ALL.
IF YOU DON'T DO IT FOR ANYONE ELSE, PLEASE DO IT FOR OUR CHILDREN.
THEY ARE MOST SUSCEPTIBLE TO IONIZING RADIATION.MANY THANKS TO WHOMEVER LEFT THE FOLLOWING INFORMATION FOR US ALL:
"Also, a reminder of the Petition to "Protect children from radiation exposure!"

While commenting on the above matter at regulations.gov, I happened upon the Proposed Rule regarding Low Level Radioactive Waste Disposal, NRC-2011-0012. I have just begun reading the information provided, but it appears a loosening of restrictions is intended with this proposal. I was curious to know if you have seen the proposed rule and if so, if you had any insight or comments on the matter. Thank you.

@maleficmelodies, thank you for taking the time to go to the NRC website for this.
DeleteBeing by NO means an expert on this, I DO know of it and bow to the articles by Michael Collins of 'Mining Awareness' for in-depth looks ta this waste disposal.
Please see Collins' excellent articles at https://miningawareness.wordpress.com/2015/07/24/low-level-nuclear-waste-summary-by-nirs-sierra-club-seed-comment-to-us-nrc-by-one-minute-to-midnight-nyc-dc-et-tonight/ , and https://miningawareness.wordpress.com/2015/09/09/us-nrc-low-level-nuclear-waste-proposal-33-x-higher-than-high-level-dumps-removes-state-rights-to-protect-people-environment-comment-by-sept-21st-11-59-pm-et-ny-dc/ . There is another of his articles somewhere on that site that shows actual photos of the haphazard way waste is both transported and stored, if one can call it storage instead of plain old dumping.
That so few of us in America know any of the details or even generalities of how poorly the NRC, EPA, et al, "regulate" the nuclear industry OR provide for the safety of all U.S. citizens surely speaks poorly for an uninformed, perhaps unconcerned general populace, yes?
Again, thanks for taking the time. You are one of few.
Best regards.
As for comment? My take on nuclear power is that it is a mere excuse for the military to have a way to enrich uranium in 'stealth mode', more or less. Nuclear power is NOT cheap, provides very little of America's energy needs, creates waste that must be (or is it?) buried for several human lifetimes and simply cannot be 'contained'. ALL nuclear power plants leak, which is another reason the NRC looks longingly at the hormesis theory. The nuclear industry would save billions if the NRC allows hormesis insanity to dictate our new 'norm'. We'd fare much better with solar, wind, even ocean waves as power generators. Nuclear proliferation, the eternal one-upmanship of who has the most apocalyptic weapons , is by no means over. Nuclear power plants power military might...their true reason for existence.
