Groups petition NRC to delay restart of quake-centered N. Anna reactors

Awaiting the announcement that the Nuclear Regulatory Commission will approve the restart of Units 1 and 2 at North Anna, a coalition of concerned citizens locally and regionally have filed an Emergency Enforcement Petition to stop the reactors while the regulatory body actually collects input from the community.  Members of Not On Our Fault Line and the People's Alliance for Clean Energy will be speaking to press about the reasons we're asking the NRC to slow down the restart process.  See the petition here. Groups filing are: Beyond Nuclear, Not On Our Fault Line, Sierra Club-Virginia Chapter, Saprodani Associates, Alliance for Progressive Values and Planetary Health, Inc. The groups will be holding a press conference on Friday, October 21st at 1pm at 512 Mineral Ave. Mineral, VA 23117 (the Post Office in Mineral). Map courtesy of PSR.
