Make your contribution now and help Gothamist thrive in 2023.The company in charge of decommissioning the now-defunct Indian Point nuclear power plant has decided to hold off on a planned discharge of wastewater into the Hudson River following outcry from local and federal officials.
But in a letter to the state body tasked with decommissioning Indian Point, Holtec said it would pause its plans for the time being. “While Holtec notes that the U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission has ultimate authority over radiological liquid releases at Indian Point and at other sites across the country, we hope this voluntary pause will be viewed positively as an indication of our willingness to work together with the state and with the surrounding community,” the letter continues.
