San Onofre Reactor 2 to be subject of cost-benefit analysis
Like the rest of the year, August 2012 has been a tumultuous rollercoaster for the San Onofre Nuclear Generating Station. The utility announced that Unit 3 was no closer to restart and that they would be removing the nuclear fuel from the reactor, announced the layoffs of a third of the staff, and began hanging their hats on the hope that the Unit 2 reactor would be allowed to restart at reduced power. That hope now is even less likely, after the California Public Utilities Commission announced that it will hold hearings this fall into whether rate payers should go on paying for the plant, even when it isn’t generating any power.http://enformable.com/2012/08/san-onofre-reactor-2-to-be-subject-of-cost-benefit-analysis/
