Bush selects Yucca Mountain for nuclear waste storage
President Bush approved moving up to 77 000 tons of spent nuclear fuel to a single storage site at Yucca Mountain Nevada 90 miles from Las Vegas. The plan faces Congressional regulatory and court challenges with readiness not before 2010. Nevada officials and environmentalists oppose citing groundwater and safety concerns while supporters call the site safe and necessary.
