Parties put spin on waste issue view story
Thursday, August 12, 2004
HENRY J. CORDES - - Omaha World-Herald
| When U.S. Sen. Ben Nelson runs for re-election two years from now, will Nebraska voters see him as "the $141 million man"?
Or will he be "the man who protected Nebraska from becoming the nation's nuclear waste dumping ground"?
Both political parties already are spinning the state's agreement to pay a nearly $141 million settlement for blocking construction of a low-level radioactive waste storage facility.
It's an issue with particular political intrigue.
