WASHINGTON.(TO THE POINT)
Daschle blasts nuclear waste site,
says Nevada disposal plan "dead'
Nevada got a boost in its fight to keep nuclear waste from being stored at Yucca Mountain when the incoming Senate majority leader put up a formidable partisan roadblock. "I think the Yucca Mountain issue is dead," Sen. Tom Daschle, D-S.D., said after arriving in Las Vegas for a fund-raiser for Sen. Harry Reid, D-Nev. "As long as we're in the majority, it's dead." Reid will become the majority whip, the No. 2 man in the Senate. Since 1987, Yucca Mountain has been the only site studied to become the graveyard for 77,000 tonsof nuclear waste.
Energy Secretary Spencer Abraham will issue a report to President Bush aboutYucca Mountain next year. The earliest it could open is 2010.
