Domenici objects to Mitre report on nuclear policy
Senator Pete Domenici of New Mexico rejects two Mitre Foundation funded recommendations. He opposes delaying reprocessing of spent uranium and postponing breeder reactor work. He argues unilateral limits won’t curb proliferation and breeder reactors offer inexhaustible energy. The stakes involve US nuclear strategy and energy policy. On Navajo Chairman Peter MacDonald, his trial in Phoenix is moved from April 1 to May 15 after a grand jury indictment for defrauding Tucson Gas and Electric of 7400 dollars and tax reporting lapses.
