The LES plant would introduce a proven high technology process that could provide young people a reason to stay in Claiborne Parish.
If the safety of the plant is proven, let's look at some of the socioeconomic benefits, such as the one percent School Board tax that will bring in about $5 million over a 3-4 year period.
Impacts of plant operation on surface water and groundwater
- quality, especially Lake Claiborne, are -expected to be minimal.
With high unemployment and underemployment at present, high-paying construction and operations jobs will be welcome.
The project will benefit not only claiborne Parish, but also the surrounding region.
No significant releases of uranium hexafluoride to the environment have occurred at the plants of this type in Europe.
Estimated doses of radiation are a small fraction of the doses received from background radiation sources.
The LES plant site is in a Rural Enterprise Zone, which has requirements about employing local people.
The presence of v.his plant will provide more incentive for staying in school and permit even more local people to be hired.
The LES plant Luld lead to additional growth and more opportunities to show the high productivity of Claiborne Parish residents.
LES provided tours of similar plants in Europe so we could see firstnand what type of plant we'd be getting, and let us visit with people in the communities.
DEIS concludes the plant can be " constructed and operated with small and acceptable impacts on the public and the environment."
Encourage the U. S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission to complete its review and license the plant as soon as possible.
