　〔★は大沼〕 ◎　Las Vegas Review-Journal　Video shows blasts at nuclear waste dump site that shut down U.S. 95

・　A video of Sunday's explosions that preceded a fire in a state-owned radioactive waste trench at the US Ecology site 10 miles south of Beatty shows white smoke emanating from the soil before the ground erupts, shooting debris and more white smoke into the air.

The 40-second cellphone video, released Thursday by the Nevada Department of Public Safety two days after the Las Vegas Review-Journal had requested it, was taken from a berm atop Trench No. 11 overlooking the soil cap of Trench No. 14.

Trench No. 14 is where containers of low-level radioactive waste were buried in part of a pit the size of a football stadium in the 1970s.

Authorities shut down a 140-mile stretch of U.S. Highway 95 for nearly 24 hours because of the fire and flash floods during Sunday's heavy rains in Nye County. Beatty is about 117 miles northwest of Las Vegas.

　・　Low-level waste is solid material considered less lethal than high-level radioactive waste of the type proposed for entombment at Yucca Mountain, not far away. It doesn't include used fuel from nuclear power plants or waste from U.S. defense programs. It can include contaminated tools, protective clothing and plant hardware such as steam generators from nuclear plants, as well as medical items and laboratory supplies.

　・　Nye County emergency management chief Vance Payne told the county commission that incident managers initially feared about 2,000 people in the sprawling rural area would need to be evacuated if radiation had been detected.
