Three states join N.J. group in petitioning NRC to stop relicensings

Three states have joined a group of New Jersey citizens to challenge the Nuclear Regulatory Commission's relicensing of four nuclear plants in the Northeast, including the Oyster Creek Generating Station, over what environmental groups have called a "cut and paste" review process.

Richard Webster, an attorney with the Eastern Environmental Law Center, said it was the NRC's own Inspector General's Office, or OIG, that pointed out similarities in language in safety evaluations between power plant assessments and those of federal inspectors.

"Vermont, Connecticut and New York are supporting us in this," Webster said. "We were the instigators. We were the first to read the OIG report and realize there was a problem." Webster represents a New Jersey-based coalition of six environmental and citizen's groups called Stop the Relicensing of Oyster Creek, or STROC.

A September audit released by the OIG found that in 76 percent of license renewals NRC investigators apparently didn't check the authenticity of safety information provided by plant operators.

1. What a bunch of predatory assholes!

These dipshits wouldn't know diddly about safety if it bit them in their pathetic little fundie asses.

They are trying to injure the health of my family because they are too fucking stupid for words.

There is NOT ONE of these pathetic assholes who is going to lift a fat lazy bullshit brain to help one person among the tens of thousands who will die because of the dangerous fossil fuel waste that they will cause to be dumped, about none of which they could care less.

Shit holes! Intellectual and moral shitholes!

Beneath contempt...really.

This is personal with me. My kids are the ones who are in the line of fire for this burst of unnecessary ignorance, this appalling vandalism and destruction in service to mythology.

If they want to suck coal ash into their lungs, why don't they stroll over to visit their illiterate pals in Germany?

Man these people suck.
