UNLV's Harry Reid Center for Environmental Studies will host a forum titled "Where Do We Go From Here: The Legal Aspects Facing Yucca Mountain" from 6-9 p.m. April 10 in the auditorium of the Marjorie Barrick Museum of Natural History. The event is free and open to the public.

During the forum, Nevada Attorney General Brian Sandoval will provide an overview of the issues surrounding the Yucca Mountain controversy and the role each one plays in the pending legal challenges. Audience members will have the opportunity to ask questions and contribute to the ongoing legal debate.

The presentation is being sponsored by the UNLV Yucca Mountain Education Project, a multidisciplinary effort by UNLV faculty and staff to create a balanced information resource for the general public about high-level radioactive waste repositories.
