Well, well looky here – MOX fake news media concedes on its favorite budget-busting debacle (MOX) – this “news” outlet repeatedly and pro-actively ignored that the MOX project was headed to termination and printed false “information” about he status of construction of the Mixed Oxide Fuel Fabrication Facility (MFFF) at SRS, a huge disservice to MOX workers and the community.
This sad editorial is a fitting end to the MOX boondoggle: “Editorial: Thank You Sen. Graham you gave it all to save MOX” – linked here
Now, Senator MOX, who stole our money to keep the MOX boondoggle going for years, will aim to transform himself into Senator Pits. And, he won’t fight to help protect laid off MOX workers. Senator Lindsey Graham will stop at nothing to keep grabbing the hard-earned money of US taxpayers.
But in any push for pit production Senator ex-MOX will run into the buzz saw of the House Armed Services committee, which won’t simply sign off on unjustified plutonium pit production (for unneeded nuclear weapons). And, there’s the obstacle that a requirement that a Programmatic Environmental Impact Statement (PEIS) be prepared on need for expanded pit production. It’s simple: No PEIS, No Pits!
