Lab optimistic on WIPP impact despite disposal plans
The Sandia Laboratories official said the main effect would be sterilizing about 30 acres of mined salt at the Waste Isolation Pilot Plant near Carlsbad. He added minimal environmental or health risks, noting potential danger only if a canister is drilled into and very small amounts reach the Pecos River over thousands of years. Public hearings are set for June 7-8 on seven storage alternatives, with no action deemed unacceptable long term.
