Nuke Power- Shaky Ground! - 2008-09-18 12:16:35
For those of us watching the push for nuclear expansion at Calvert Cliffs (and greater contamination of our air and Chesapeake Bay)? We can not help but wonder how this new ownership deal will impact the decision by Maryland Public Service Commission to allow UniStar permission to build this double-sized, experimental European Pressurized Reactor (EPR) to join the 2 aging reactors already at Calvert Cliffs.
Many of us are questioning what impact this new ownership of Constellation Energy will have on nuclear expansion on the Bay? Will it leave Marylanders on perhaps even more shaky ground than ever before? Read more about what nuclear expansion means to Marylanders and the Bay at: www.safeenergymd.com.
