The General Assembly,DEFINING nuclear power as the use of sustained nuclear fission to generate heat and do useful work,RECOGNIZING that nuclear power is an efficient and abundant source of power,AWARE that many nations use nuclear power as a source of power and some use it as a main source of power,REALIZING the potential hazards of nuclear power such as nuclear waste and nuclear accidents that can cause long term damage to people’s health and the environment,BELIEVING that most hazards caused by nuclear power can be easily prevented or dealt with responsibly,CONCERNED that some nations may not have well-established safety standards for nuclear power and may be at risk of nuclear hazards,ESTABLISHES the Nuclear Energy Safety Commission (NESC) to promote and oversee the safety standards of nuclear power plants,SHALL grant the NESC the responsibilities of:I. The inspection of nuclear energy power plants for the purpose of evaluating safety protocols,II. Determining the level of compliance of safety protocols in conjunction with standardized practices,III. Determining which safety protocols are lacking, and inform facility management and the controlling government of deficiencies,IV. Advising courses of action(s) needed to bring safety protocols and standards in line with standardized practices,V. Receiving and evaluating outstanding safety practices for implementation for standardization as “best practices”,MANDATES the following for nations:I. Take prime responsibility for risks caused by exposure to radiation while handling radioactive material for the purpose of nuclear power,II. Establish procedures and arrangements to maintain safety and stability while operating nuclear power plants,III. Have safety measures in place to prevent or have arrangements to deal with exposure to radiation while handling radioactive material,IV. Follow adequate building designs for the construction of nuclear power plant facilities,V. Establish proper regulations for facilities and activities dealing with the handling of radioactive materials for the purpose of generating power,VI. Enforce regulations placed upon nuclear facilities and attempt to pass legislation to better the safety of said nuclear facilities,Co-authored by Lestaria and neuchies
This excludes Fusion power from being Nuclear Power. On those grounds alone, I oppose it.
