Some facts you may not know: 1. Used nuclear fuel is a solid 2. There's not that much of it 3. It's safely stored and managed at nuclear plant sites across the country.

What Happens to Nuclear Waste in the U.S.?

Nuclear plants produce waste—which is a debatable term—while generating electricity, but what it is exactly and how it’s handled are different than you might think.
