Canadian officials are holding off a final decision on whether to open a nuclear waste dump in Ontario less than a mile from Lake Huron.
State Senator Phil Pavlov says that’s good news.
He opposes the plan and is worried about the long-term impact on the lake, especially if there’s a leak.
The plan by Ontario Power Generation has drawn bipartisan opposition from Michigan’s state and federal lawmakers as well as over 150 municipalities, from Toronto to Chicago.
A final decision isn’t expected until December.
