HOBBS, N.M. (AP) – An energy equipment company has taken steps toward opening a long-term storage facility for spent nuclear fuel in southeastern New Mexico.

The News-Sun reports that Holtec International has submitted a letter of intent to the U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission about its bid to open a $5 billion Consolidated Interim Storage Facility in Lea County.

Hobbs Mayor Sam Cobb says the formal notice to the NRC is the latest development in a years-long process. http://krqe.com/2016/04/13/company-proposes-nuclear-waste-storage-in-new-mexico/

The Republican; Governor Susana Martinez, of New Mexico - soon to be the Trump running-mate - invites companies and the Federal Government to dump nuclear waste on her constituents[Xi and me]: She could be the next Vice President of the USA.

Landing the popular and telegenic governor of New Mexico would be a coup for Trump.

Martinez is the first female governor of New Mexico and the first Hispanic to lead the Republican Governors Association.
