The American Nuclear Society applauds California legislature for passing bill to support Diablo Canyon
Statement from American Nuclear Society President Steven Arndt and Executive Director/CEO Craig Piercy:
"The American Nuclear Society applauds the California State Legislature for passing legislation that, among other things, would support the option of continued operations of the Diablo Canyon nuclear power plant. We thank Gov. Newsom for his support and reconsideration of the state’s decision to prematurely shutter California’s largest clean energy resource. We look forward to the signing ceremony.
Recipient: Dr. David F. Roelant
