If you are a U.S. Citizen, this is an excellent topic to weigh in on right now, as it is being debated in our federal government. A bill is in the House of Representatives that, if passed, would re-open the licensing process for Yucca Mountain. The bill is being spearheaded by a Republican representative from a district in Southern Illinois. Here and here are two opinion pieces from some years ago in which he argues that Yucca should be re-opened.
The bill he has introduced is called H.R. 3053, or the Nuclear Waste Policy Amendments act of 2017. It is not yet up for discussion and vote in the House of Representatives as a whole, as it is moving through the committees that must review it. This may take some time. You can get updates, as well as the full text of the bill, here.
Use either name for the bill and do a ‘news’ search online and you can find some news stories from the point of view of Nevada residents and from other points of view. Here is a post and video from the House committee proposing the bill.
Here are some calls for action from the Illinois-based anti-nuclear group NEIS.
