Nuclear Group to Meet in Aiken This Week
The Nuclear Regulatory Commission will hold a public management meeting in Aiken to discuss the MOX fuel facility at the Savannah River Site. The session runs 7 to 9 p.m. at the Aiken Federal Building with public observation and Q A opportunities. The project aims to spend about 5 billion dollars to open in 2016 to dispose of 34 metric tons of weapons grade plutonium and produce MOX fuel, drawing opposition from environmental and fiscal critics. Duke Energy pulled its MOX contract on December 1, 2008.
