NUCLEAR WASTE REPOSITORY PROJECT OFFICE |
Welcome
to the
Nye County Nuclear Waste Repository Project Office
(NWRPO) website. The purpose of this site is to
provide the public with information about Nye
County's involvement with the Yucca Mountain Project
(YMP) and YMP issues in general.
For
more
than two
decades, the U.S. Department of Energy (DOE)
has conducted an extensive scientific effort to
determine whether Yucca Mountain, Nevada is a
suitable site for a deep geologic (underground)
repository to dispose of the nation's high-level
radioactive waste (HLW) and spent nuclear fuel (SNF).
Nye
County, Nevada is the single local jurisdiction
selected by the federal government to host the
repository. The Nye County Board of
Commissioners established the NWRPO as Nye County's
staff agency to ensure County policies and actions
regarding nuclear waste activities are conducted to
protect the health, welfare, and economic well-being
of its residents and environment, and to plan for
and mitigate possible impacts of the repository, if
it is located in Nye County.
