VOLUME 107 ISSUE 42 WWW.ALLIGATOR.ORG FRIDAY, OCTOBER 19, 2012 Some residents oppose nuclear power plant KATHRYN VARN Alligator Contributing Writer

A proposed plan to build a nuclear power plant near Levy County has a small group of Alachua County residents in an uproar over the potential en- vironmental and safety hazards, despite assurances by company offi cials that the plant will be closely regulated. Francine Robinson, chairwoman of the Committee for Nuclear Responsibility in the Florida League of Conservation Voters, held a press conference in front of the Alachua County Family and Civil Courthouse Thursday regarding resident opposition to the plant. Nine people, including four reporters, attended. “It’s an environmental disaster,” former Gainesville Mayor Tom Bussing said at the press con- ference. Mark Goldstein, another former Gainesville may- or, said he’s concerned about the possibility of nuclear exposure to Alachua County if the plant is built. Progress Energy Florida, a subsidiary of Duke En- ergy, is building the plant to boost energy production in the state, said Suzanne Grant, a Progress Energy Elise Giordano / Alligator Staff Florida spokeswoman. The company bought 5,000 acres for the Levy County plant, which is expected Alter Ego to be in service starting in 2024 and will run for 60 Ryan Oates, 22, an acting junior, right, and Melissa Mendez, 21, a dance senior, sort through costumes in Constans SEE NUCLEAR, PAGE 4 Theatre on Thursday morning.
