 A NUCLEAR
GRAVEYARD
Concerns and threats of nuclear
waste to American lives
Highly radioactive fuels that are still located
in aquifers, some of which are overloaded,
posing threats such as locations near nuclear
power plants.

Features of Mount Yucca and

possible risks of burying nuclear
waste underground
 Other voices
A number of earth-scientists have refuted Szymanski's
conclusion
Unable to find any evidence to support Szymanski's hypothesis

Some reasons critics weigh in on choosing this

place to bury nuclear weapons waste
Southeast of the Busted Butte, a mountain peak that was cut in
half by an earthquake.
The repository location is unlikely to be able to isolate nuclear
waste for 10,000 years. In a few years, this country will produce
48,000 high-temperature wastes.
