Thursday's decision in favor of nuclear waste storage in Utah's Skull Valley was made by the Nuclear Regulatory Commission's Atomic Safety and Licensing Board. Ultimately, appeals still could be made to:

The Bureau of Land Management, which has not yet granted right of way over land it administers.

The Bureau of Indian Affairs, which has some authority over Indian lands.

The Nuclear Regulatory Commission itself, which still must complete the licensing procedure.

The 10th Circuit Court of Appeals in Denver or the Circuit Court of Appeals in Washington, D.C.
