Texas A&M president Bowen to step down in 2002
Texas A&M University President Ray Bowen said he will step down next year after guiding the school through record enrollments and the 1999 bonfire collapse. Bowen, 65, will remain as a professor and lead the university until June 30, 2002, after which he plans to teach mechanical engineering.

The EPA sets a 15 millirems per year limit for residents 11 miles from Yucca Mountain with groundwater exposure capped at 4 millirems.

Nevada officials question safety and transport plans for waste shipments to the site near Las Vegas. Christie Whitman says the rule protects future generations.
