President Keeps AGNS Waiting for Nuclear Policy Decision

The Barnwell AGNS plant stalls at a presidential indecision point on commercial nuclear fuels policy. Carter’s 1977 halt on reprocessing and INFCE studies shape prospects, with three of five units complete and ongoing DOE research tied to NASAP and nonproliferation safeguards.

Anti Nuclear Groups Warn Of Severe Dangers Involved

South Carolina anti nuclear advocates led by Brett Bursey of the Palmetto Alliance held a mass demonstration at the AGNS Barnwell plant and plan a public education push. They warn of expanded radioactive waste storage at SRP and a possible 1980s solidification plant, calling waste disposal a major states rights issue. If a federal storage bill passes, Barnwell could become a temporary world waste facility, threatening long term site permanence.
