The process is made more difficult because state and federal grants and loans to help communities pay for basic infrastructure such as water and sewer projects are drying up. Over the next decade the project could cause a significant increase in water fees....

"In legal brief, Coakley joins fight against Vermont Yankee" by Dave Gram, Associated Press / June 14, 2011
MONTPELIER — Massachusetts came to Vermont’s aid yesterday in the legal fight over whether the northern neighbor can bar the Vermont Yankee nuclear plant from operating within its borders.
Despite raising the specter of the Japanese nuclear disaster that began after an earthquake and tsunami in March, Attorney General Martha Coakley’s office said its lawyers were not pushing the idea that Vermont Yankee should close, merely that states should have a say....
In the brief filed yesterday, Coakley’s office argued that Massachusetts has a keen interest in Vermont Yankee’s future. The 39-year-old reactor is located in Vermont’s southeast corner in Vernon, less than 5 miles from the Massachusetts state line and on the west bank of the Connecticut River, which flows through Massachusetts. Massachusetts gets electricity from Vermont Yankee via the New England power grid, and several towns in Northwestern Massachusetts’ Franklin County are within Vermont Yankee’s emergency evacuation zone.
Yeah, HI, readers!
In the event of an accident, “Massachusetts communities could face contamination of soil, water, and agriculture resources that would force displacement of residents and businesses, conceivably devastating state or local economies for years into the commonwealth’s future,’’ the state’s lawyers wrote.

That's why I'm worried and concerned about those pipes.
And did you know that if you are anti-nuclear power, you might be a terrrorist?

Of course, there is no need to worry about nuclear radiation that is still spewing in one form or another even as I type.
