Nuclear Waste Bill Divides South Carolina Leaders
South Carolina congressmen welcome a federal nuclear waste bill as a safeguard for state interests but criticize Senate changes. The measure creates a permanent waste repository and bans using Barnwell Morris and West Valley facilities for high level wastes while permitting temporary storage at Savannah River Plant only in limited forms. Representative Butler Derrick says temporary storage cannot occur at private sites and criticizes both utilities and the Energy Department for pushing a bill that shifts disposal responsibility away from utilities.
