NRC safety report clears Indian Point for 20 more years

NRC safety report clears Indian Point for 20 more years
The Nuclear Regulatory Commission's final safety statement on Indian Point finds no reason to stop the New York nuclear plant from operating for another 20 years. New York Attorney General Andrew Cuomo asked that the license renewal request be rejected, but the NRC said in a statement that Entergy "has identified actions that have been or will be taken to manage the effects of aging in the appropriate systems, structures and components of the plant."
