Radioactive, cancer-causing tritium has leaked into the groundwater

beneath the San Onofre nuclear power plant, prompting the closure of one

drinking-water well in southern Orange County, authorities said.

 

Officials have not found evidence that the leak from the San Onofre

Nuclear Generating Station, California's largest, has contaminated the

drinking water supply.

 

As a precaution, San Clemente officials shut down and are testing a city

well near the contaminated area.

 

" We owe it to our residents and business folks to properly test the

water, " said Dave Lund, San Clemente's public works director.

talking about getting a court order before we do so "

-George W. Bush, April 20, 2004
