Valuing Power Industry Profits Above Safety? Giuliani Won't Rule out Yucca Mountain
Posted By JM Bell on March 30, 2007
Giuliani said he was aware of the safety concerns with the proposed nuclear waste repository at Yucca Mountain and “somebody would have to take a good look at that.”
When pressed, he did not rule out the repository, however.
“One of the things you’ve got to be real careful about with nuclear power is you’ve got to make sure it’s really, really safe,” he said. “Frankly, some of the problems that have occurred with Yucca Mountain are matters of grave concern, so you’d have to take a good look at that.”
Those concerns should not kill the nuclear power industry, he said.
