Nuke Shipment Passes Without Incident



Nuke Shipment Passes Without Incident - (BRIGHAM CITY) -- The 
Department of Energy says a shipment of nuclear waste has made 
its way through a section of northern Utah without incident. A truck 
carrying casks containing contaminated gloves and other items 
moved into Wyoming late yesterday morning. It's the first of what 
will be many shipments of nuclear waste from Idaho to a 
controversial storage site in New Mexico. By coincidence, the 
federal government plans hearings tomorrow on plans to build a 
temporary nuclear waste site in Tooele County. Officials say the 
Tooele site would hold a much more dangerous category of nuclear 
waste.
