Yucca Mountain Supplemental Environmental EIS

The U.S. Department of Energy (DOE) held a Supplemental Yucca Mountain Repository Environmental Impact Statement (EIS) public scoping meeting in Washington, DC at L'Enfant Plaza Hotel on Oct 30, 2006. The meeting was to help determine the scope of the SEIS, which will address current repository design and associated operational plans.

Since publication of the Yucca Mountain Final Repository EIS in 2002, DOE has continued to develop the repository design and associated operational plans. The comment period closed on Nov 27, 2006. Additional information can be requested at www.ocrwm.doe.gov
