Calif. county considering delay in license renewal for nuclear plant
The San Luis Obispo Board of Supervisors may ask federal regulators to push back the relicensing process for the Diablo Canyon nuclear facility until its owner completes additional high-tech seismic studies. The board will also vote whether to ask the California Public Utilities Commission to clear Pacific Gas and Electric's plan to have ratepayers cover the $16.73 million cost of such studies.
