Regulators fight third-time 'tax' on nuclear

American nuclear power companies may have to pay to clean-up military enrichment sites - for the third time over. An independent association of regulators has joined industry to oppose the unwarranted 'tax'.

"Part of the deal was that the power companies would pay a certain amount extra on top of the costs of enrichment to cover the future costs of decommissioning and cleaning up the federally-owned plants.  However, the DoE, which had the responsibility to manage this work, "did not set those or any other funds aside for this work," according to the National Association of Regulatory Utility Commissioners (NARUC)."
Geeee - the government has never done that before.
