Peer reviewedHoldren, John P. – Bulletin of the Atomic Scientists, 1974
Outlines the stages of the nuclear fuel cycle where routine radiation releases occur and where nonroutine releases could occur. Examines the impact of these occurrences and emphasizes the regulations, practices, and technologies that prevail in the United States. (Author/GS)

Peer reviewedSpeth, J. Gustave; And Others – Bulletin of the Atomic Scientists, 1974
Calls attention to the fact that if the Atomic Energy Commission proceeds with its plans to authorize the nuclear power industry to use plutonium as a fuel in commercial nuclear reactors around the country, this will result in a dramatic escalation in the risks posed by nuclear power. (PEB)

Peer reviewedLovins, Amory B. – Bulletin of the Atomic Scientists, 1973
Environmentalists lobby points out that hazards which may result from mistakes in proposed fast breeder reactor for additional energy can be detrimental for mankind. Such projects must be carefully planned and cautiously executed. (PS)

Peer reviewedSpinrad, Bernard I. – Bulletin of the Atomic Scientists, 1971
The American energy crisis is real in that our supplies of fuel which can meet standards imposed on utility emissions are short, and their price is high. It is artificial in that many of the standards could be partially relaxed, and cheaper fuel used by utilities without significant public insult. ...Nuclear power from fission is our best bet."…
