David Lochbaum, director of UCS's nuclear safety project, has been a member of the American Nuclear Society (ANS) for nearly 30 years. Rick Michal, senior editor of Nuclear News, the ANS's monthly magazine, recently interviewed David for an article appearing in the March 2008 issue. The interview covered a range of topics, but primarily focused on how ineffectiveness by the Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC) resulted in nuclear power being less safe and more costly than necessary. The article is posted on the ANS website and can be accessed via the link provided here.
