Nevada is NIMBY... it doesn't matter what federal agency is in charge.

Although Robert Halstead, executive director of the Nevada Agency for Nuclear Projects, agreed that DOE had not been a productive partner, he said that irrespective of what agency sits across from the negotiating table, the state would need to have veto authority over the project like that given in the Nuclear Waste Informed Consent Act. Introduced by Democrats in Nevada’s congressional delegation, the bill would require state and local consent to advance the project.

100% agree.   Contending DOE has caused the waste storage issue and Yucca opening delay helps shift the blame off the people of Nevada.
