Big "if"

 If the Department of Energy (DOE) were eliminated, nuclear waste management in the U.S. would face significant challenges. The DOE is responsible for developing and implementing strategies for the safe handling and disposal of radioactive waste, including designing and operating disposal facilities.

  Without the DOE, these responsibilities would need to be transferred to another agency or a new independent organization, as recommended by expert panels

  This transition could disrupt current waste management programs, delay the development of permanent disposal solutions, and increase taxpayer burdens due to interim storage costs.

These added responsibilities could overwhelm any other agency, Wouldn't?
