Nuclear industry cluster developing in southeast New Mexico
The Santa Fe Reporter's cover story yesterday (May 19), contrasts the opposition to all aspects of the nuclear industry that is fairly common in Santa Fe to the enthusiasm in the southern part of the state (and to some extent in Farmington) as evidenced at the conference in Hobbs, which stressed "New Mexico’s future as a focal point for the new nuclear age, in which economies rely increasingly on nuclear power and entire processing industries spring up around the “uranium fuel cycle,” which begins with mining and ends with waste disposal. Every stage of that process can be monetized--and nearly every stage has commercial operations in New Mexico."
