Will TEXAS become a Radioactive Dump for the Nation?

January 3, 2011 By TXsharon

..State District Judge Jon Wisser issued a temporary restraining order against the Texas Low-Level Radioactive Waste Disposal Compact Commission, which is scheduled to vote Jan. 4 on rules that could expand how much waste could be processed at a dump in remote Andrews County.

The injunction was issued in the judge’s courtroom late Thursday morning, shortly after environmentalists filed the request, with nobody there representing the commission. A few minutes later, shocked lawyers from the Texas Attorney General’s Office – which hadn’t been officially notified of the pending court action – showed up and persuaded the judge to order a new hearing on the injunction.

The hearing is set for Monday JAN 3RD in Austin, one day before the commission’s scheduled vote.

    I sent my letters of protest and signed the petition. I can't watch. I'm putting my head under my pillow. Let me know when it's over.
