Global Nuclear Energy Partnership = More Waste to Hanford In the dying throes of the Bush administration, one last environmental disaster is being foisted on the public. With GNEP, Hanford Nuclear Reservation would get a lot more nuclear waste (both from within and outside the country) and a dirty nuclear waste 'reprocessing' plant. Condemned by health and environmental groups across the country, GNEP means foreign nuclear waste imported and "reprocessed" to USA for more plants. The only public meeting in Oregon by DOE about its Global Nuclear Energy Partnership, is in Hood River at 7 PM Tuesday, November 18 at the Hood River Inn, exit 64 from Portland. CARPOOL or take FREE BUS (see below). This is a national issue. We need a big Oregon outcry. 20 years behind on clean-up, Hanford cannot accept more waste!!!
