Abstract

The article discusses a lawsuit filed by the Skull Valley band of Goshute and Private Fuel Storage (PFS), over claims that the U.S. Interior Department killed a nuclear waste dumping project because of political pressures and not on merits. The project involved the tribe allowing PFS to store nuclear waste on its reservation in Utah's west desert, in exchange for $200,000 a year and job opportunities for tribal members.
