The testimony on S. 1606 focused on financial issues associated with cleaning up Three Mile Island, Unit 2 which will continue to be a potential public health threat until decontamination is complete. The 12 witnesses included representatives from the Nuclear Regulatory Commission, the affected utilities, officials and legislators from New Jersey and Pennsylvania, and the Union of Concerned Scientists. The text of S. 1606, which sets up a supplemental insurance fund to cover nuclear plant accidents and requires all licensed nuclear powerplants to participate in the cost-sharing plan, follows their testimony.
