Topics Limited during the Virtual Public Hearing for WIPP Expansion

Legal maneuvering by the New Mexico Environment Department and the

Department of Energy (DOE), and decisions made by the Hearing Officer, have limited

the scope of the virtual public hearing about whether the plan to dig a new $197 million

shaft at the Waste Isolation Pilot Plant (WIPP) will be approved.
