A good ten days of retreating

START is on the Senate floor; the Comanche Peak reactor in Texas is on hold; EDF can't move forward at Calvert Cliffs; Oyster Creek will shut down in 10 years instead of 20; Alternate Energy Holdings, which planned to build a new reactor in Idaho, has been accused of fraud by the SEC; and  Indian Point owners, Entergy, were denied an appeal for water certification that is needed for the plant's relicensing.

Update on January 3, 2011 by admin

START was indeed ratified during the Senate's lame duck session before the holidays.
