LeVander presses AEC to mirror PCA nuclear rules
Gov Harold LeVander urged the Atomic Energy Commission to regulate the NSP Monticello nuclear plant with Minnesota PCA standards. He warned against a legal clash over pollution rules and said Minnesota will not accept minimal controls on radioactivity. The dispute centers on PCA versus AEC standards for the 92 million dollar plant near Monticello on the Mississippi River. The governor repeated his stance in a letter to AEC chair Glenn Seaborg, noting Minnesota’s desire for stronger safeguards and vowing to seek court relief if needed.
