Welcome to the 47th Carnival of Nuclear Energy Blogs!
The Carnival, per Dan Yurman, is "a weekly round-up of the best blog posts from the leading U.S. nuclear bloggers. If you want to hear the voice of the nuclear renaissance, the Carnival of Nuclear Energy Blogs is where to find it.
Past editions have been hosted at NEI Nuclear Notes, Next Big Future, Atomic Insights, ANS Nuclear Cafe, Canadian Energy Issues, Yes Vermont Yankee, and of course here at Cool Hand Nuke, in addition to several other popular nuclear energy blogs.

Welcome to the 44th Carnival of Nuclear Energy Blogs - FUKUSHIMA EDITION.
Special Note: This weeks Carnival of Nuclear Energy Blogs will have a few of changes due to the events at Fukushima and the rate at which information has been coming to us. In short, we will have batch updates to this Carnival with new postings twice daily so long as new posts are given to us. Furthermore we will step out of the blogosphere and post relevant links to both radio and television interviews or information pertaining to the developments in Fukushima. And finally we usually make some effort to provide a narrative and a bit of levity in our carnival's, not this week. We're posting links and summaries. Please keep the people of Japan and the Fukushima region in your thoughts and prayers.

NRC releases heavily redacted Yucca Review
The NRC has just released a heavily redacted version of the Yucca Mountain Review. This action has been justified using a maneuver within the Freedom of Information Act, the process by which the Heritage Foundation sought access to these documents.
What was redacted you ask?
Well, it was the scientific analysis and unbiased recommendation of the NRC staff. Something that the taxpayers and nuclear utilities have paid millions upon millions of dollars for but Chairman Jaczko seems hell-bent on preventing.
I refer to it as a ‘maneuver’ and I believe rightly so, as it plainly seeks to limit access to the report findings i.e. the unbiased scientific analysis and recommendation of the NRC staff without regard to politics or policy debate. And clearly Jaczko does not want anything positive about Yucca to see the light of day. In fact, he has repeatedly demonstrated his intent to do exactly the opposite. He has sought to stifle, postpone and disrupt the normal work of the great people at the NRC since he began his stint as Chairman.
