Vermont Yankee nuclear power plant sits on the Connecticut River. It has refused to shut down even though the owners signed an agreement with the state that it would close this year. Hardly a month goes by without hearing about a leak of some sort. It is important to note the this plant is of the same design and vintage as those that are melting down in Japan since the earthquake last year. It was even built by the same people at the time. The Feds have given it a 20 license, but they are still legally beholden to the State. The plant must be closed NOW!
Why is this important?
Say no to Vermont Yankee and their broken promises that they made with the state. The plant is unsafe and the owners promised to close it this year.
