Rocky Flats Lawsuit: Activists Ask Judge To Keep Public Off Former Nuclear Weapons Plant

DENVER (AP) — Environmentalists and community activists are trying to persuade a judge that the public might not be safe on a Colorado wildlife refuge that used to be a buffer zone around a nuclear weapons plant. The judge scheduled a hearing in Denver federal court Tuesday on whether to grant a preliminary injunction barring the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service from opening Rocky Flats National Wildlife Refuge to the public this summer.
