Yucca Mountain battle will be fought in digital court
By Doug Beizer
"Deep bookshelves curve behind the lawyers’ tables in a courtroom at the Nuclear Regulatory Commission in Rockville, Md. Crammed onto the shelves are thousands of paper documents generated over the course of complex hearings before the commission. They contain the details of proposals such as licensing a new reactor and building a waste repository.
The mounds of paper were expected to grow significantly over the next few years, as adjudication moved forward on the Energy Department’s license application for a commercial nuclear-reactor waste-storage facility at Nevada’s Yucca Mountain.
Nortel Government Solutions Inc. of Fairfax, Va., was the prime contractor and systems integrator for the project. ExhibitOne Corp. and Media Edge Inc. supplied hardware, software and integration services.
Media Edge, Linthicum, Md., focused on Internet multimedia solutions, and ExhibitOne of Phoenix provided audiovisual technologies." - Washington Technology News -03/27/06
