S.C. nuke panel chief resigns - Local / Metro - TheState.com

"Saying South Carolina is no longer the nation’s prime destination for low-level atomic waste, a Rock Hill lawyer says he’s stepping down as chairman of the three-state Atlantic Compact commission effective June 30.
Ben Johnson says he’s ready to leave because the 11-year-old Atlantic Compact has accomplished its purpose of limiting the flow of low-level atomic waste to South Carolina.
“I am proud that we kept our commitment to the public and to South Carolina’s environment,’’ Johnson said in his Feb. 7 resignation letter to Gov. Nikki Haley."
