全國68個由州及其當地草根團體所組成的多個國家組織10日向美國能源部提出評論意見，表達其反對在內達華育加山興建高放射性廢棄物掩埋場的計畫。
這些組織團體同時也表達反對將上千萬噸核廢料運經45個州，到位於育加山西北90英里處的拉斯維加斯進行掩埋。
這些反對聲浪標示著育加山反對民眾最後的努力，他們其中有些人一直積極反對興建核廢料掩埋場，抗爭了快30年的時間。
育加山位於聯邦土地的沙漠之中，與內達華洲奈郡（Nye County）的內達華核試驗場相比鄰。其位於拉斯維加斯西北約90英里處，而拉斯維加斯可說是美國成長最快速的大都會區。
A dozen national organizations, joined by 68 state and local grassroots groups from across the country, filed comments with the U.S. Department of Energy Thursday in opposition to the high-level radioactive waste repository planned for Yucca Mountain, Nevada.
The groups also oppose shipping thousands of tons of nuclear waste through 45 states to Yucca Mountain located 90 miles northwest of Las Vegas.
This marks the latest effort by Yucca Mountain opponents, some of whom have been active against the planned facility for nearly three decades.
Yucca Mountain is located in a desert on federal land adjacent to the Nevada Nuclear Test Site in Nye County, Nevada. It is about 90 miles northwest of Las Vegas, Nevada, the fastest growing metropolitan area in the United States.
