Calvert County Commission Expresses Support for New Reactor

From the Washington Post:

The Calvert County commissioners approved a letter of support Tuesday for the Evolutionary Power Reactor that UniStar-Constellation has proposed to construct at the Calvert Cliffs Nuclear Power Plant site near Lusby.

"Many of the decisions we make are difficult; many take months, even years," Commissioners President Wilson H. Parran (D-At Large) read from the letter drafted by Economic Development Director Linda S. Vassallo. "But the decision to support the potential expansion remains simple and uncomplicated. Nuclear energy is clean and reliable. Calvert Cliffs is a good and responsible corporate citizen in our community."
