Spain names site for delayed nuclear waste dump

NkSpain’s incoming centre-right government named a site on Friday for a nuclear waste dump, a decision that had been long delayed by its Socialist predecessors amid protests by residents and regional authorities.

The industry ministry chose Villar de Canas -135 km (84 miles) southeast of Madrid – for the Temporary Centralised Store (ATC in Spanish) which it said will bring 300 jobs to the town of 400 people.
