§4301. Findings and purpose

1.  Investment in nuclear power plants.  The Legislature finds that construction of a nuclear power plant is a major financial investment, which will have consequences for consumers for years to come.

[PL 2015, c. 165, §1 (AMD).]

2.  Costs.  The Legislature finds that there are many uncertain future costs associated with nuclear power plants, including the costs of low-level and high-level waste disposal, decommissioning and long-term care. These costs will be borne by the consumers and reductions in these costs will serve to benefit consumers.

[PL 2001, c. 629, §1 (AMD).]

3.  Citizen participation.  The purpose of this subchapter is to provide for citizen participation in any decision to construct a nuclear power plant within the State.

[PL 1987, c. 141, Pt. A, §6 (NEW).]
