Feds Seek "Input" on Depleted Uranium Tails

KOB TV - Idaho-based International Isotopes Inc. plans to deconvert the tons of depleted uranium tails that will be produced each year at a National Enrichment Facility in the town of Eunice.
In the process, International Isotopes will be able to simultaneously extract fluorine gases that could be sold and used in manufacturing solar panels, computer screens and medical equipment.
Federal regulators have released a draft environmental impact study on the proposed uranium deconversion plant. Staffers found through a preliminary assessment that the deconversion plant would have no large environmental impacts. Elected officials from the area have expressed support for the project and the public is now being asked for input. Read full story here: News New Mexico
