"Caliente Corridor Being Considered Again For Yucca Mountain"
The Yucca Mountain project is far from dead. One of the trickiest parts about building a nuclear waste repository in Yucca Mountain is getting the waste to the facility. One month ago, the Walker River Paiute Tribe said no to building a rail corridor through the middle of their reservation. Now, the idea of using the Caliente corridor is being tossed around again.
Major interstates are being looked at including using the beltway, I-15 and US-95. Nevada leaders say the transportation of waste to our area is more likely to be a threat to us, in the short term, than the repository itself. Although studies show the possibility of an accident is low, the consequences are great.
