Developments in Spent Fuel Storage

It's good to be back again. I was here one year ago and saw a part of Washington I had never seen before, even in the eight years I served in Congress. Ice storms were upon us and the Potomac was fro/en. As an introduction to my remarks, I used an overhead of a picture from the front page of the Washington the ice and towing a boat filled with oil to one of the oilfired power plants to provide electricity and all the goodies that go with it to the Washington, D.C., Maryland and Virginia areas. And I thought, how ironic that here we are in 1994 talking about our energy future and the need to resolve some of these problems, and the problem was brought smack in the face of the nation's capitol.
