> Is Uranium relatively easy to find to power these reactors […]

Yes. Uranium is (currently?) cheap and plentiful, to the point that nuclear 'waste' fuel reprocessing isn't generally economically worth it: it's cheaper to store in and buy new fuel.

If the price of uranium does ever spike or becomes harder to get to, then reprocessing can become an option.
