YUCCA MOUNTAIN FIGHT: Sandoval recruits supporters

[NVMojo]

This dork was the co-chair of Bush's re-election campaign, long with the Governor of Nevada, in spite of the fact that they had fought against Bush on Yucca Mountain approval and he ignored them.

CARSON CITY -- Attorney General Brian Sandoval on Tuesday sent letters to the attorneys general in 10 states urging them to speak out about what he called unacceptable proposed radiation standards for the planned nuclear waste repository at Yucca Mountain.

Letters sent to the attorneys general in Idaho, Washington, Colorado, New Mexico, Texas, Tennessee, South Carolina, Kentucky, Ohio and New York ask them to oppose the standards during the 60-day public comment period that ends Oct. 21.

Nevada officials believe those 10 states will be most affected by the radiation standards proposed by the Environmental Protection Agency.

"I am writing to alert you to a disturbing proposed rule that, if promulgated, has the clear potential to destabilize the cleanup standards for all Department of Energy facilities, including the DOE facility in your state," Sandoval said.
