Weber County, in partnership with the Utah Office of Energy Development, will host a community symposium exploring nuclear energy's potential role in Weber County on Aug. 5, 3:30-7 p.m., at the Ogden Eccles Conference Center. Residents can learn and engage in open dialogue about the opportunities and considerations associated with advanced nuclear energy development in the county.
The symposium will begin with a community energy expo featuring interactive exhibits and informational booths, followed by keynote presentations and panel discussions focused on nuclear energy feasibility, economic development opportunities and workforce readiness.
