Wyden To Bring Attention To Hanford
RICHLAND, Wash. (AP) — A Northwest lawmaker whose home state neighbors the nation's most contaminated nuclear site says the committee he chairs will hold several hearings about cleanup troubles there. Democratic Sen. Ron Wyden of Oregon is the new chairman of the Senate Energy and Natural Resources Committee. Wyden toured south-central Washington's Hanford nuclear reservation yesterday, and says he is planning to move nuclear waste issues up the list of priorities in Washington D.C.
