Research Web Sites Nuclear Waste in Granger?

Sites for research for Plate Tectonic Socratic Seminar


Weather/climate in the Granger area


Population information.


You can use Google to see a map of Granger. In this case (only for maps) you can site Google Maps as a source.


For comparison, you should see where the closest nuclear power plant (Cook Nuclear) is, near Bridgeman, MI. (It is just north of the Bridgeman area.)

Earthquake map


Information about nuclear waste shipping and storing in Illinois


A question to ask yourself is, “Why would a location want to store nuclear waste?”


Other helpful sites include the Nuclear Regulatory Commission, at http://www.nrc.gov/ and the Environmental Protection Agency at http://www.epa.gov/.
