Perhaps Robert Zubrin was ahead of the curve. The AP reports:
The chairman of the Nuclear Regulatory Commission was unprofessional and “wrong” as he repeatedly misled fellow commissioners about his efforts to stop work on a disputed dump for high-level radioactive waste, an agency watchdog said Tuesday.
Inspector General Hubert T. Bell told Congress that NRC Chairman Gregory Jaczko manipulated the panel’s four other commissioners by selectively withholding information on a crucial safety review of the proposed Yucca Mountain nuclear waste dump in Nevada. Jaczko’s actions allowed him to shut down the review last year without a vote of the full commission.
