Our proposal seeks to provide stability, clarity and predictability in moving the Yucca Mountain Project forward as quickly as possible. It is good for national security, it is good for the environment, it is good for the economy, and we think it is very good for America.

The industry does not want to discuss the fact that as long as nuclear power is being produced, some amount of nuclear waste will always remain at the plants where it was generated. Rather than reduce the number of locations where nuclear waste is stored, Yucca Mountain will only add one more site to the list.

It started about 1987 with the Yucca Mountain study. I've been asking for it for 15 years.
Aaron Williams
Porter has taken tens of thousands of dollars from indicted, convicted and corrupt politicians. He hopes to raise as much as a million more at a fundraiser with President Bush, Yucca Mountain's strongest advocate.
Megan Jones
The cost of Yucca Mountain is approaching $100 billion, and Senator Reid believes too much money has been wasted on the project.
Tessa Hafen
Recognized that Utah and Nevada should be united against the arrogance of the East Coast dumping its waste on the West. We still have never addressed the transportation risks, whether on the roads or rails to Skull Valley or Yucca Mountain. That is why this lethal cargo should stay where it is until an acceptable disposal solution can be found.
Jim Matheson
I'm concerned the facilitator for this meeting is using what I would refer to as a Yucca science model. Any research she doesn't agree with, she doesn't acknowledge.
Bill Hanlon
In terms of radioactive waste, that's still a mess with all the eggs in the Yucca Mountain basket.
John Holdren
If you had yucca and buffalo, you'd be set. You could make about anything you needed between the two.
Gary Weisenberger
There are growing voices in the nuclear power industry that support looking at alternatives to burying nuclear waste 90 minutes outside Las Vegas given the insurmountable obstacles facing Yucca Mountain. With each passing day there are fewer and fewer justifications for moving forward on efforts to bury nuclear waste in Nevada when on-site storage is safe, affordable and already in use.
Shelley Berkley
We are committed to opening Yucca Mountain based only on sound science. The work that we do must be without question or qualification, and this report confirms that we are on the right path forward.
Paul Golan
Under today's scenario we are planning to put reprocessed waste into Yucca Mountain.
Paul Golan
Yucca Mountain isn't tunnels - it's a mine. Mines fall apart. It's damp. It's rock. There's nothing they can do to support it forever. And they're going to put this hot stuff in there - are they nuts?
Sally Devlin
Yucca Mountain was formed 10 to 15 million years ago, and it's not a volcano; it's the result of volcanoes.
Allen Benson
Moving forward into licensing will allow an open public debate on the safety of Yucca Mountain. The waste is here today - let?s not pass this burden onto our children.
Paul Golan
We did intensely study this, and when you stand on Yucca Mountain the cinder cones are moving away. The youngest one is 80,000 years old so if any new ones develop they're moving south and away.
Allen Benson
Yucca Mountain was recommended by the U.S. Geological Survey because of the attributes the site possesses including a stable geology, a deep water table, no one lives there, it's a desert environment and ... it's remote.
Allen Benson
We looked for votes everywhere. I looked under rocks, under a shrub, under a yucca tree and the stump of a plantain tree.

If you kayak down Yucca Pen, it looks fine. The problem is its drainage area has been platted for development, so it drains a much larger upland area.
Aaron Adams
It was my opinion that Yucca Valley was the best team on the field Friday night.
Dave O'brien
As it now becomes clear, scientifically, legally and practically, Yucca Mountain is not going to become a single repository for nuclear waste, and we need to start thinking about new strategies and new places to deal with this.
Bob Bennett
Yucca Mountain is such a mistake. There needs to be more research done on the alternatives.
Kevin Kamps
I'm really shocked the EPA has proposed this, ... It's not a standard to protect public health. It's a standard to protect the industry's interest in Yucca Mountain.
Arjun Makhijani
Yucca Mountain is a good site. It is a safer and more secure location than the temporary storage options.
