Hendon
-Continued from Pip I
A 400-mile buffer zone would not
only exempt the WNC site from fur
ther consideration, but would also
disqualify many of the other 11 can
didates still iri the running for the
second nuclear dump site. One of
those is located in Wake, Johnston
and Franklin counties in the center
of North Carolina
Final selection of the site will not
come until 1996.
Another point in Hendon's plan is
also directed at the MRS facilty.
Hendon said he hoped to block con
gressional authorization of a MRS
facility ? and its funding.
"Maybe we don't need it," he
said. "Maybe it's too expensive.
Maybe it's not needed in the chain
from origin to deep geologic storage
of nuclearwaste."
DOE is scheduled to ask request
M RS funding on Feb. 6.
Hendon has asked Morris Udall,
chairman of the House Sub
committee on Energy and the En
vironment, to hold oversight
hearings on the MRS issue. The
hearings would examine the need
for MRS and the impact on trans
portation between the source of nu
clear waste and its storage.
Other aspects of Hendon's
10-point plan are:
? DOE hearings in WNC. Dates
for the hearings have not yet been
set, but Hendon said it is important
to have good public turnout at the
hearings.
"This gives us ample time to pre
pare the strongest possible argu
ment we can muster against putting
nuclear waste into these beautiful
mountains," Hendon said.
? Preparation of a com
prehensive response to the pro
posed nuclear waste plan. The
response should include statements
concerning possible impact on
groundwater resources, proximity
to highly populated areas, the
transportation system and the
effect on the tourism industry.
Steen
-< oiiiinurd (raw Pip I
Steen told The News Record that he
will oppose the creation of a nuclear
waste depository in WNC, saying, "I
have been active in the organizations
opposing the nuclear waste
repository being considered for
Madison County."
The filing period for candidates in
the May 13 primaries continues until
Monday at noon. Complete listings of
all candidates for state and local of
fices will appear in next week's edi
tion
Hendon sited a report that 47 per
cent of the people surveyed would
change their travel plans if they
knew their vacation spot was near a
nuclear waste storage facility.
"You can imagine the impact that
would have on Western North Car
olina," he said.
The Haywood-Buncombe
Madison site, part of the Elk River
rock formation, is seven miles from
the Great Smoty Mountains
National Park, "the crown jewel of
our national park system," Hendon
said. It is also 8 miles from the Blue
Ridge Parkway, 8 miles from the
Shining Rock Wilderness and within
10 miles of highly populated areas.
? Formation of citizens' task
forces on nuclear waste in each of
the 17 Western North Carolina
counties.
? Petition drives, letter-writing
campaigns and school essay con
tests.
? Use of Hendon's Con
gressional Mobile Office to Hay
wood, Buncombe, Madison and
other WNC counties to coordinate
public opposition.
"We'll wear out the back roads of
Madison, Haywood and Buncombe
counties to provide information to
the people and to mobilize public
opposition to this," Hendon said.
