Issue Position: Close Nuclear Plant at Hanford - Prevent the Next Oso

Issue Position

Date: Jan. 1, 2016
Issues: Energy

The Columbia Generation Station is substantially the same GE model as the Fukushima reactors which exploded in 2011. It is dirty, dangerous, and expensive. It releases radioactive gasses and radioactive tritium water daily. It is located downstream from earthen dams which could fail in an earthquake. It could flood and catch on fire. It could be the next Oso, times 10 million. As governor I would take action to close it down.
