Nuclear industry advised to hush up about Yucca

An article in the latest issue of Nuclear Waste reveals that the nuclear industry is being advised to go silent on the failed Yucca Mountain proposed radioactive waste dump site and "repackage its message" including to "stop talking about the proposed Yucca Mountain nuclear waste repository altogether." The article quoted Pat Cavanaugh, legislative director to Rep. Mike Doyl (D-Pa) as telling the industry to focus its message on "zero emissions and green jobs" and to disengage from the "yes-toYucca, no-toYucca fight."
