Volcano near Yucca Mountain may be younger and riskier
In Albuquerque a U S Department of Energy line on the Yucca Mountain waste site is challenged by UNM and Los Alamos scientists who say the Lathrop Wells volcano near the site is about 20 000 years old, not 300 000. Researchers warn eruption odds over 10 000 years could be 100 times higher. DOE funding for volcano research at the site rises to 1 million.
