Kerry and Yucca

Kerry has been known to say that he supports the expansion of nuclear energy.
At the same time he has come out against the development of Yucca mountain as a
more permanent repository for spent nuclear fuel. I am having trouble
understanding how these two positions fit with one another. Has anyone heard
Kerry say what he plans to do with the spent fuel generated by our nuclear
power plants?
