1. RADIOACTIVE WASTE IS NOT NEW TO NEVADA

In the 70's my organization shipped radioactive waste to the Nevada Test Site (NTS.) Since NTS had many areas of radioactive contamination sending more radioactive waste was a good idea. I know the stuff was just hidden in the desert. I do not think the government would super fund and clean this part of Nevada? Therefore people think more radioactive waste should be piled in Nevada. Shooting the waste into space was an idea in the past. We also know many rockets EXPLODE. We have been lucky with the nuclear reactors which were on some satellites launched.......I know radioactive waste has to be disposed, but we better find an area that does not have earthquakes or other possible concerns which would just cause a BIGGER mess.....
