Planting nuclear power in the Red River Valley

U.S. Senate hopeful Duane Sand outlines energy plan, nuclear power potential
Republican U.S. Senate hopeful Duane Sand of North Dakota said Tuesday that America needs to commit to building 20 new nuclear power plants in the next 20 years, and one of them should be in the Red River Valley. Sand, 46, told the Herald’s editorial board that the nation now has 104 nuclear power plants, which add up to less than 1 percent of all power plants but produce nearly one-quarter of domestic power.
