From Staff and Wire Reports

County leaders are praising a bankruptcy deal that leaves Diablo Canyon nuclear plant ownership and regulatory oversight unchanged.

Pacific Gas & Electric Co. will keep ownership, and the federal Nuclear Regulatory Commission will continue to oversee safety and security at the plant.

San Luis Obispo County was concerned about PG&E;’s solvency to safely operate and eventually decommission the plant, assistant county counsel Jac Crawford said.
