I am calling for a full impact assessment and public hearing and insisting that transportation be included and thoroughly considered in the review (the NWMO intends to send 2-3 trucks per day for fifty years; trips will average 1,800 km over mostly two-lane public roads, travelling from nuclear generating stations in southern Ontario and eastern Canada to the NWMO’s proposed site in the headwaters of the Wabigoon River in northwestern Ontario). I hear that this area is well know for frequent transport truck crashes, 2 fatal transport accidents recently. I am sorry there is only a 30 day window for comments. Thank you for considering my concerns.
