| Congress Approves Bill to Study Expanding Assistance to Downwinders |
| Congress has given final approval to legislation
sponsored by Sen. Orrin G. Hatch (R-Utah) requiring the federal
government to study whether there is scientific evidence supporting
expansion of coverage for a popular program assisting radiation
victims downwind from the nuclear test site in Nevada. The bill also
provides for a $4 million, Hatch-sponsored program to assist
communities that want to screen possible downwind radiation victims. |
