Leonora is being touted as the perfect place to host an underground, low and intermediate-level nuclear waste storage facility.
The Department of Industry, Innovation and Science said it was currently not considering Leonora as a potential location and that detailed studies were continuing at the three nominated sites in South Australia.
A proposed community ballot on support for the facility in Kimba and Hawker has been on hold pending legal action. The Aboriginal group said the proposed ballot breached the Racial Discrimination Act because not all native title holders were given the opportunity to vote, as some lived outside the council boundaries."Together with results from public and private submissions and feedback from stakeholders including neighbours, council and local groups during community discussions, it will be determined if there is broad enough support at any of the sites," a department spokesman said.
