Faults uncovered at Yucca Mountain
It is often true that the findings of a study conclusively show that more study is needed. Such is the outcome of a new report on Yucca Mountain, Nevada—part of the $6.3 billion federal project to characterize the potential high level radioactive waste storage site, which is expected to continue for another 7 years.Focusing attention once again on the ...
