Council Says, "It Could Be The Next Fukishima."

The Conservation Council accusing NB Power of worshipping the almighty dollar when it comes to Point Lepreau.

Sharon Murphy of the Council tells Tide News Point Lepreau has many of the same risk factors as the plant at Fukishima and they can back that up with hard science.

She says it has already been studied and written down by the CNSC and NB Power, that Point Lepreau can not withstand a seismic event.

Murphy says the group has been met with a lack of respect from pro nuclear authorities -- but that won't stop the group from trying to keep the plant from reopening.
