Two issues must be addressed, however: spent fuel storage and proper maintenance of facilities. Both get swept under the rug, unfortunately. I did a brief stint with a company that made components for nuclear reactors, and I can attest to the most rigorous of engineering, Quality, and safety testing and evaluation on the face of the earth. I have absolute confidence in the components that go into a nuclear reactor and auxiliary systems. The private companies who cut corners at every opportunity? Not so much.
