Thune statement on NSF's selection of Homestake Mine as a Finalist for DUSEL
July 21st, 2005 - Washington, D.C. - "Homestake's selection as one of only two finalists is very encouraging news for South Dakotans. I am confident that the Homestake Mine is the best site for the DUSEL project. This money allows us to produce a competitive design and fight to bring this project to the Black Hills, creating high-tech jobs and transforming our economy for the 21st century." -John Thune
