I am keyboarding this https://courses.enger.illinios.edu/npre201/coursematerial/breederand_fussion/lecture22.html; leaving out an underscore between breeder and and, as I read the study. I do not think that this plant can do this.

There is a very hard and large miles long rock running underground and along the state line east of Carlsbad that contains waste oxides of radioactive uranium (Oxygen has a -2 oxidation state and Uranium has a +2 oxidation state). Uranium + one fused proton is Plutonium; Atomic Numbers/Proton Number as seen on a Period Table of Chemical Elements.
