Governors ask Congress to bolster funding for nuclear projects

The Western Governors' Association called on members of Congress to approve a $36 billion increase in the federal loan-guarantee program for nuclear energy, as requested in President Barack Obama's budget for fiscal 2011. In a letter to the House and Senate appropriations committees, the governors wrote that the additional funds would help cover the cost of building several reactors. http://PowerGenWorldwide.com
