"Promoters of the Yucca Mountain, Nev., nuclear waste repository left for dead by the Obama administration are celebrating Republicans' Senate takeover as a chance for resurrecting a project stymied by outgoing Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid (D-Nev.).
'It's looking up for Yucca,' said Lake Barrett, a former Department of Energy official turned energy consultant. 'Yucca is going up in viability through this process; on the merits, it'll start to stand out.'
Republicans keen to see the project proceed after a decadeslong impasse agree."
