View says 127 million cooling tower waste at Savannah River Site
An unsigned View urges against spending 127 million under the Clean Water Act to build a cooling tower for the SRS reactor. It notes Rep. Butler Derrick’s bid to exempt the reactor and redirect funds to urgent cleanup, opposed by environmental groups who fear setting a bad precedent. The piece argues the site is unique, with a safe history and swamps that recover after shutdown, and suggests the cost reflects an environmentalist agenda to end nuclear activity.
