=
House Bill 335 is a bill that tries to find a safer way to store nuclear waste. The waste has usually been stored under mountains, but that is to costly for the people in the area of those mountains. But House Bill 335 states that instead of storing the waste in many widespread mountains we should just designate a specific area to store that waste where not many people live. This will keep the amount of waste pollution out of many places and just keep it in that one area.====== =Bill History- =

=
In the past, the goverment dumped nuclear waste underneath mountains. This act made people with mountain homes or people who just lived in the mountains very irritated, because the government dumped radioactive waste right outside their homes. As a result, the people came up with this bill which requires nuclear waste to be dumped in reserved areas away from homes and public areas.======

==Who does this bill affect?  ==

=
This bill affects the people that live in the areas around Yucca Mountain and other mountains where the nuclear waste is currently being stored. This bill also affects the people that are close to the new designated area where the waste will be moved. The people living near the mountains where the nuclear waste is being stored, will be happier because they will not have to worry about nuclear disasters taking place in their backyards anymore. The people within a close distance to where the designated spot is located, will become angry and upset that out of all places, they end up with the nuclear waste. Also, if something were to go wrong while the waste is being transported, people anywhere near that area could die or be seriously injured. This bill also affects the people that are responsible for moving the nuclear waste, because they have to move it somewhere else and get it out of the mountain without======

any mistakes or it could result in disaster. ======

= = = = == What is the importance of this bill? ==

=
This bill is important because it proposes a better alternative for storing nuclear waste by moving it to a designated area. The nuclear waste will be moved out of the Yucca mountain and other mountains in that area, and transported to the designated area, which has not yet been determined. This bill is very important because we need to get dangerous nuclear waste out of people's backyards and to a safer area. The transportation may be dangerous and risky, but it will be worth the move.====== = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = =__Bill Sponsor- Jean Schmidt:__ = == = = ========
