Nuclear plant shutdown would cost U S $540 million
Washington reports an independent contractor estimates the United States must spend about 540 million dollars to abandon the obsolete West Valley atomic fuel reprocessing plant in New York. The facility, run by Nuclear Fuel Services Corp and Getty Gil Corp, has not reprocessed fuel in four years and may close when its contract ends in 1980. Solidifying and shipping toxic wastes to a permanent repository would require building a solidification plant beside the site, driving the total cost to 540 million.
