One serious concern i have is that transportation is not included in the project description.
Another concern is that the alternatives proposed in the NWMO project are either worse than those in the proposed plan or non-existent.
A third concern is that, according to Chief Michele Solomon, Fort William First Nation, “the voices of opposition have not been considered in the selection process scenario.”
What other technologies did NWMO consider, and how can we be assured that the ones NWMO chose are the best?
I feel strongly that the January 5 to February 4 comment period is too short. The timeline for the assessment of this project must be expanded to include more time for the public to study the proposal and future comment periods.
Thank-you
