Vermont nuclear plant for sale; governor-elect says it should shut down in 2012

MONTPELIER, Vt. (AP) -- Entergy Corp. made it official Thursday: It's putting the troubled Vermont Yankee nuclear plant on the market.

But Vermont's governor-elect said a new owner wouldn't change his view that the plant should shut down when its current license expires in 2012.

Entergy said in a statement that it is exploring the sale of the 605-megawatt nuclear plant in Vernon.

"While no decision has been made to sell the plant, the company expects interest from multiple parties," the company said.
