Atomic
Atlas Projecta project of Public Citizen
Welcome to the Atomic Atlas Project,a web-based tool designed to foster an understanding of the dangers posed to your families, homes and communities by the transport of high-level radioactive waste. The Atomic Atlas allows you to identify the routes that commercial radioactive waste may travel and to locate the schools,colleges and hospitals along those routes. Follow the easy steps below and you will have all the information you need to become an advocate for your community in the battle against the unwise, unsafe and unnecessary transportation of nuclear waste. The United States Congress has legislation pending which calls for the transportation of commercial radioactive waste from nuclear reactors around the country to a temporary waste dump in Nevada. The Atomic Atlas enables you to see the threat posed by thousands of unecessary radioactive waste shipments and provides you with the information you will need to stop it.
