Kansas, Nebraska face waste dump crisis and stalled sites
Kansas relies on South Carolina and Utah for low level waste. South Carolina closes to out-of-region waste by 2008, leaving Utah with capacity but not for highly contaminated waste. Nebraska settlement over a stalled dump shows no viable national site, with Texas potential but strong local opposition. Officials warn time is running out and a national solution is needed.

Nebraska senator defends dump denial after 141 million settlement
Nebraskan senator defends the decision to reject the radioactive waste dump as Nebraska settles with a five state compact for 141 million dollars.

Harman, top Democrat on the House Intelligence Committee, notes she cannot vote and that the fight would be misplaced in this election year.
