Yellowstone Nuclear Free, a Wyoming
Non-Profit Organization, seeks to stop
the construction of a nuclear and
hazardous waste incinerator by the Idaho
National Environmental and Engineering
Laboratory (INEEL) in southeastern Idaho.
This proposed incinerator will be less
than 100 miles and directly upwind from
Jackson Hole and the greater Yellowstone
ecosystem, the largest contiguous
ecosystem in the lower 48 states. We propose
there are numerous, safer alternatives to
incineration. Also, this proposed
incinerator is especially dangerous - if
not potentially lethal - to Jackson Hole,
the greater Yellowstone ecosystem and all
its inhabitants.
Prevailng
westerly winds threaten
to carry airborne incinerator particles
from the INEEL facility across the
Idaho/Wyoming border and into Yellowstone
and Grand Teton National Parks.
