Mineral County Yucca Mountain Oversight
The Mineral County Impact Report estimates that 5,450 truck shipments would
traverse Mineral County and Hawthorne on US95 under the Proposed Action in the
Yucca Mountain EIS, which calls for shipments of 63,000 MTHM of CSNF to the facility
between 2010 and 2033. If the expansion of Yucca Mountain (known as Modules I and
II) is approved, the Churchill County Impact Report, the number of shipments increases
to 19,193 from 2010-2048.
