Governor Brian Sandoval continues to oppose the proposed high-level nuclear waste dump at Yucca Mountain, regardless of whether President elect-Donald Trump decides to back idea. The governor told the Las Vegas Review Journal he hasn’t talked to Trump and doesn’t know his position, but says it won’t affect his long-held opposition to Yucca Mountain. A Wall Street Journal editorial earlier this week urged Trump to revive the Yucca Mountain repository to address the growing stockpiles of nuclear waste at sites around the country.
