WCS secures Texas regulator's approval for waste-storage project
The firm Waste Control Specialists secured the Texas Commission on Environmental Quality's approval to start storing low-level radioactive waste from 38 states at a site in West Texas. Texas now has a safe solution for the disposal of the material, said Chuck McDonald, a spokesman for the company. "The state of Texas has been diligent and thorough in its oversight of this facility, which is the most robust disposal facility ever constructed in the United States," he said.
