BALLOT TITLE CERTIFIED BY ATTORNEY GENERAL
CLOSES TROJAN UNTIL NUCLEAR WASTE, COST, EARTHQUAKE, HEALTH CONDITIONS MET
Question: Shall Trojan nuclear power plant operation be barred until permanent federal waste site is licensed, other conditions met?
Explanation: Enacts new law. Suspends operation of Trojan. Provides that no Oregon nuclear power plant, including Trojan, shall operate unless the Energy Facility Siting Council finds, after a hearing: a permanent radioactive waste repository has been federally licensed and is accepting waste; the plant is then cost-effective; the plant can withstand major earthquakes without harming the public; and allowable radiation releases do not harm the public. If legislature declares electric power emergency and refers the question, voters may suspend or repeal this law.
