Keating Pushes to Move Spent Nuclear Fuel to Federal Facilities

U.S. Rep. Bill Keating (D-Mass.) announced last week that the House passed a bill to speed up the process of moving spent nuclear fuel off local sites, like the Pilgrim Plant in Plymouth, to a federal holding facility.

WCAI's Kathryn Eident talked with Keating about this legislation, and about his efforts to help New Bedford fishermen in the so-called Codfather's fishing fleet get federal permission to start fishing again.

Kathryn Eident was the Morning Edition Host and Senior Producer of News until November 2022.
