New York Gov. Kathy Hochul Plans New Nuclear Plant to Replace Indian Point
--------------------------------------------------------------------------

New York Governor Kathy Hochul on Monday said she would authorize the

decades of anti-nuclear protests. Hochul said several communities had
offered to host the plant, but she has yet to make a decision.
