Experts Call for Local and Regional Control of Sites for Radioactive Waste

The withdrawal of Nevada’s Yucca Mountain as a potential nuclear waste repository has reopened the debate over how and where to dispose of spent nuclear fuel and high-level nuclear waste. In an article in the July 10 issue of Science, University of Michigan geologist Rodney Ewing and Princeton University nuclear physicist Frank von Hippel argue that, although federal agencies should set standards and issue licenses for the approval of nuclear facilities, local communities and states should have the final approval on the siting of these facilities. The authors propose the development of multiple sites that would service the regions where nuclear reactors are located.
"The main goal..., should be to provide the United States with multiple process that requires acceptance by host communities and states," the authors write.

A. Yucca Mountain was selected as the only site for a nuclear waste repository.
B. The selection of Yucca Mountain for nuclear waste disposal caused much controversy.
C. The decision by Congress was put aside due to a number of problems.
D. The decision by Congress was accepted by local communities.
