Click on the link below for the full story and the latest WIPP news. A Brief History About WIPP The Waste Isolation Pilot Plant, or WIPP, is the world's first underground repository licensed to safely and permanently dispose of transuranic radioactive waste left from the research and production of nuclear weapons. After more than 20 years of scientific study, public input, and regulatory struggles, WIPP began operations on March 26, 1999. Located in the remote Chihuahuan Desert of Southeastern New Mexico, project facilities include disposal rooms mined 2,150 feet underground in a 2,000-foot thick salt formation that has been stable for more than 200 million years. Transuranic waste is currently stored at sites nationwide.

54. Sierra Blanca Radioactive Waste Dump Sierra Blanca radioactive waste Dump. Proposed Sierra Blanca radioactive waste Dump Facts West Texas radioactive waste Dump FAQ Back to Marfa Mystery Lights. http://www.marfalights.com/sierra.html

Sierra Blanca Radioactive Waste Dump Summary When the Texas Low Level Radioactive Waste Disposal Authority (the Authority) and the Texas Natural Resources Conservation Commission (TNRCC) attempted to obtain a license for operating a radioactive waste dump site in Sierra Blanca, Texas, it created a controversy that expands across an entire community, across borders and across the nation. The controversy is ongoing, with several hearings having taken place and more on the way. Hearings for the granting of the license are expected to take place late this year (1996) or early next year. To say that the public outcry against the proposed dumping was emphatic would be an understatement. More than 500 people showed up for the first of the three official hearings that occurred Aug. 6-7, to oppose the dump. At one point, 500 schoolchildren from Mexico picketed the Texas Governor George Bush's mansion to voice their fear and opposition of the proposal. At the same time, many government representatives as well was officials from the Authority and the TNRCC contend that the proposed nuclear waste dump site has been proven to be a safe and effective area to dispose of wastes created by our nation's hospitals, medical facilities and nuclear power plants. Additionally, proponents of the dump site contend that the materials scheduled for dumping in that site are of the low-level variety, providing little or no risk to nearby residents. Supporters of the project express their concern for a clean, safe site to dispose of these waste products.

55. Our Radioactive Waste Site radioactive waste has been a concern for the last halfcentury, however, only recently has the issue received the attention it deserves. http://www.cs.virginia.edu/~jones/tmp352/projects98/group14/home.html

Radioactive waste has been a concern for the last half-century, however, only recently has the issue received the attention it deserves. The growing awareness and the increase in stockpiles of radioactive waste has resulted in a demand for new solutions and better technologies to deal with this problem. In addition to the science and technology concerns that accompany the storage and disposal of radioactive waste, there are issues dealing with the public policy, the environment, and the economy that affect the way that the United States and other countries deal with their waste. Important Issues There are several important issues currently surrounding radioactive waste disposal. First, radioactive waste disposal is a permanent problem because the high-level waste of today will be radioactive for thousands of years. The consequences and possibilities of radioactive waste entering the environment at the present time are difficult to determine, let alone thousands of years down the road. Second, there is no undisputed large-scale technique of disposal for this high-level waste. Currently, several methods of disposal are being evaluated by the scientific community, the government and environmental groups for this waste. Third, the political implications, from both federal and state perspectives, of the disposal of radioactive waste must also be addressed when evaluating this issue. About This Site This site will provide: Information on the two basic types of radioactive waste and issues surrounding their disposal (current and proposed methods)

Radiation and Radioactive Waste The National Safety Council's Environmental Health Center (EHC) conducts a variety of outreach and education activities on radiation. These efforts are supported by grants from federal agencies: Understanding Radiation in Our World http://www.nsc.org/ehc/rad/radbroch.htm We benefit from many uses of radiation but it can also pose serious health risks, leading to two major questions: How big a risk does radiation pose to our families, our environment, and to future generations? What should individuals and society do to ensure that the benefits of radiation are not outweighed by the risks? The National Safety Council’s Environmental Health Center has created a kit to help teachers explore these questions and others with their students. The new kit is available FREE to high school teachers to help educate students about radiation and risk. Single copies of the guidebook Understanding Radiation in Our World are also available free to the general public in the United States.
