Massachusetts Settles Objections to Pilgrim Plant Sale

摘要

Holtec International and Massachusetts signed an agreement Tuesday under which the commonwealth will drop its objections to the already-completed federal license transfer and sale of the retired Pilgrim Nuclear Power Station. The deal calls for the New Jersey energy technology company to provide additional financial assurances for complete decommissioning of the single-reactor facility on Cape Cod, while Massachusetts will withdraw challenges filed with the U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission and in federal court.
