Join Cal Poly Humboldt research faculty member Vincent Ialenti as he explores America's nuclear waste gridlock and the future of Humboldt Bay’s storage site– one of over seventy stranded nuclear waste sites across the country. Learn how legal, financial, and cultural forces have influenced the U.S. nuclear waste program, and where Humboldt Bay sits within the broader national challenge of governing radioactive materials as societies attempt to make credible, long term promises about safety, stewardship, and justice.

This event is free and open to the public and will be held on Thursday, April 30th from 5:30-7:00 pm in BSS 166 at Cal Poly Humboldt. For questions, contact schatzenergy@humboldt.edu or call 707-826-4345.
