Gary Ellsworth of the Committee on Energy and Natural Resources informed me that the Committee would like me to update my response to Question 5 of the Committee's Statement for Completion by Presidential Nominees. That question deals with pending litigation. After I completed the Statement, I was sued in my official capacity (Deputy General Counsel for Environment and Civilian and Defense Nuclear Programs). The plaintiff in the suit, Waste Control Specialists, alleges that the Department of Energy unlawfully rejected its proposal to provide radioactive waste disposal services. The case was filed in the Northern District of Texas. If you require any additional information, please contact me at (202)586-6732.
