Local officials and environmental advocates are expressing concern over the future of the decommissioning of the Indian Point nuclear power facility in Westchester County.
Last week, state officials celebrated a sale agreement of Indian Point from parent company Entergy to Holtec International, the entity tasked with decommissioning the site.
Indian Point ceased operations at the end of April.
The sale agreement was brokered by New York State Attorney General Tish James, who said last week the agreement with Holtec “certifies we can move forward with a decommissioning process that is safe, responsible, thorough, and exceeds stringent federal standards.”
Governor Andrew Cuomo in a statement called the agreement brokered after years of negotiations “a win for the health and safety of New Yorkers, and the protection of our environment.”
