Judy Treichel, executive director of the Nevada Nuclear Waste Task Force, and longtime watchdog on the proposed Yucca Mountain high-level radioactive waste dump, has published an op-ed in the Las Vegas Sun.
It describes the cautionary tale a raging wildfire in the Cajon Pass is, for the risks of some 900 high-level radioactive waste train shipments that would traverse that dangerous railway in the future, if the nuclear power industry lobbyists get their way, and the Yucca dump is ever opened.
