Nuclear Waste Disposal in Wisconsin Transferred to another Company

摘要

A federal agency has approved a transfer of the license for the former nuclear power plant near La Crosse. The license is going from Dairy land Power Cooperative to a radioactive waste disposal firm. The boiling water reactor at the power plant at Genoa shut down 29 years ago, but cleanup of the plant, known as decommissioning, continues. The Nuclear Regulatory Commission said it's approved turning over the license for remaining work to the firm, La Crosse Solutions, because the transfer meets federal requirements.
