Construction To Begin On Reactor L at Savannah River Plant
The Savannah River Plant will receive 42 million dollars from the federal government next year to renovate the L-reactor which has been idle since 1968. The project, approved by President Carter, will create 400 new jobs in 1981 and 700 more in 1982, with completion expected by 1983. Reactor L will become one of four operating reactors producing weapons grade plutonium and tritium for nuclear weapons.
