UE Work Can Go On at Reform Nuclear Plant
The Union Electric plant at Reform in Callaway County may continue construction and load-testing despite an NRC policy ban on new builds. A nationwide moratorium limits new plants to 1 percent capacity until a study on fuel reprocessing and waste disposal is completed by Sept. 30. The study’s findings could lead to new regulations for all 59 licensed plants.
