Background:

Spectra Energy has received approval by the Federal Energy
Regulatory Commission to build a new 42 inch diameter high pressure
gas pipeline in close proximity to vital structures at the Indian
Point nuclear power plant, as part of the Algonquin Incremental
Market Project. Mr. Blanch, a nuclear expert, and Mr. Kuprewicz, a
pipeline safety expert, will reveal that the risk assessment used as
the basis for approval of the AIM project must be negated because
the Nuclear Regulatory Commission knowingly used erroneous
information, not based on sound science, to improperly evaluate the
plant’s ability to achieve failsafe shutdown in the event of a
pipeline rupture.
