Trump to hand over Cold War plutonium for reactors

The U.S. will offer ~20 metric tons of Cold War-era plutonium from dismantled warheads as reactor fuel. The DOE will solicit industry proposals to handle transportation and processing. Critics warn of safety risks and parallels with the failed MOX fuel program.
