I beleive the company that had those was called Morrison-Knudson.  I
think they may have been contractors.  A fella I did business with some
years back had a kid that had a mining engineering degree and was
working with them.  The work he did (and I recall Yucca Mtn. being one
of the names mentioned) was enough that he retired at the age of 40.  

Man, I want that job!
