Colorado Mayor Wants Rocky Flats Nuclear Site for Research, School 

By Brian Hansen

ARVADA, Colorado, June 26, 2000 (ENS) - The now mothballed Rocky Flats
nuclear weapons plant - where the soil is still contaminated in spots with
high levels of plutonium and other dangerous materials - might make a fine
place to build a 400-acre research park or educational facility after it
closes in a few years. 

So declared Arvada, Colorado, Mayor Ken Fellman in letters sent last week
to Senator Wayne Allard, a Colorado Republican, and Representative Mark
Udall, a Colorado Democrat. Both have proposed federal legislation that
would forever preserve the 6,000-acre site as some form of non-developable
open space.
