Nuclear plant
in New York
to be junked
United Press International
NEW YORK — New York offi
cials, citing problems with the
Three Mile Island nuclear plant in
Pennsylvania and cost overruns,
Thursday cancelled construction of a
proposed multi-billion-dollar nu
clear plant in Cementon, N.Y.
The Power Authority of the State
of New York said instead it would
seek federal approval to build a coal
burning facility to replace the 1.2
megawatt Cementon plant, known
as the Greene County Nuclear
Power Project.
“Events have recently occurred
which will make licensing of nuclear
plants more difficult, ” PAS NY
Chairman Frederick Clark said in
recommending that the board sell
the assets of the upstate plant.
Clark also said the action to junk
the plant was necessary because
projected construction costs had
risen dramatically in the past few
years, from an estimated $1.8 billion
to about $3.1 billion since 1977.
