Nuclear Waste

Every step in the nuclear fuel cycle has affected Utah. And when it comes to nuclear waste, we have experienced a legacy of being targeted for nuclear waste dumps of past, current, and future wastes streams. Whether it was the now defeated Private Fuel Storage facility, the EnergySolutions (formerly Envirocare) Low-Level nuclear waste dump, or even the proposed Yucca Mountain project in neighboring Nevada, Utahns have had their share of the nuclear waste experience.

HEAL Utah remains dedicated to removing the nuclear waste target off of this great state.
