...against the NRC by the Union of Concerned Scientists, which is composed of 70,000 members, including 2,500 scientists and engineers, and three dozen nuclear experts. The nonprofit organization charges that the NRC has been far too lax about safety standards for nuclear power. Says U.C.S. Spokesman Robert Pollard, a former NRC safety inspector who resigned when his recommendations were overridden: "The top men at the NRC grew up [in the AEC] with the dream of nuclear energy. For that dream to work, it has to be economical. Even though they are only supposed to be regulating for public...

Antinuke forces thought such celebrating was premature. Physicist Henry Kendall of the Union of Concerned Scientists called the test meaningless because the LOFT reactor has less than 2% of the output of a typical atomic plant. Said his colleague Robert Pollard: "It's like using a kite to prove a moon rocket will work." But LOFT scientists rejected that argument. Said one: "It isn't necessary to crash 747s against buildings to test their safety." One thing was indisputable: the emergency core cooling system did work. Just to make sure that it does the job under different conditions, the Commission...

The trio, Dale Bridenbaugh, 44, Gregory Minor, 38, and Richard Hubbard, 38, announced that they would instead work full time for Project Survival, the organization coordinating the anti-nuclear referendum drive in California. Another engineer, Robert Pollard, 36, quit his job with the federal Nuclear Regulatory Commission in protest over conditions at Consolidated Edison's Indian Point nuclear power plants in Buchanan...
