Titus Applauds NRC Decision To Consider Pulling Yucca Mountain License
Statement
Issues: Energy Environment
Congresswoman Dina Titus of Nevada's Third District released the following statement today on the Nuclear Regulatory Commission's (NRC) decision to consider the Department of Energy motion to withdraw the license application for Yucca Mountain.
"Our long fight against turning Nevada into a nuclear waste dumping ground is one step closer to an end following the NRC's decision today. The science is clear; this project was wrong from the start, and I am hopeful the NRC will rule in our favor. From eliminating funding in the budget to pulling the DOE application, we are closer than ever to putting an end to Yucca Mountain."
