A pamphlet is held up calling on the Nuclear Regulatory Commission to recall the Holtec International canisters, or casks, Southern California Edison uses to contain and transfer nuclear waste at the San Onofre Nuclear Generating Station. During the NRC’s town hall meeting in San Juan Capistrano on Tuesday, Aug. 20, demonstrators, who believe the canisters aren’t thick enough to safely hold the plant’s nuclear waste, handed out lemons as a snide reference to the adequacy of the casks.
