Wyoming Senator Barrasso Says It's Time for Yucca Mountain

摘要

Sen. John Barrasso said that "it's time to end the political games" and complete the licensing on the Department of Energy's application to build a permanent nuclear waste repository at Yucca Mountain in Nevada. Barrasso, R-Wyo., the chairman of the Senate Committee on Environment and Public Works, has filed a bill to complete the licensing process that was shelved under the Obama administration under a Senate that was then controlled by Democrats and then-Majority Leader Harry Reid, D-Nev.
