Delay Sought by Environmental Groups for Reactors in Georgia

In this mention

Nine environmental groups, including the Southern Alliance for Clean Energy and Friends of the Earth, announced plans to seek a court delay of Southern Company's $14 billion construction of two nuclear reactors at the Vogtle plant in Georgia. The groups are challenging the Nuclear Regulatory Commission's approval, citing insufficient consideration of lessons from Japan's Fukushima disaster. An attorney for the groups stated the court stay would prevent construction while the legal challenge is reviewed.
