    ANDREWS - This small West Texas town grew its economy on oil but may hang its hopes on what some folks believe is their next boom: storage and disposal of radioactive waste. Dallas-based Waste Control Specialists owns 14,400 acres about 30 miles outside town near the New Mexico border. About 1,340 acres are set aside for hazardous waste storage and disposal, and the company will manage tons of federal uranium byproduct waste by year's end.
