  1. Of note, Ms. Jaworowski, I read, was apparently an advisor on NuScale’s attempt to get a SMR licensed by the Nuclear Regulatory Commission. NuScale spent more than a decade in the process – with hundreds of millions in US taxpayer dollars squandered – only to have the license process suspended. The last memo from NRC staff was 20 pages long, consisting of 100 safety concerns. During the design phase construction cost estimates increased by three-fold – to nearly $10 billion – for 6 units whose combined capacity was less than half the size of a traditional reactor. SMRs – if they are deployed at all – is just another Indiana boondoggle waiting to happen. One thing is for sure, SMRs will never be mass produced. The specter of factory flaws, essentially inevitable, will prevent that.
