YEREVAN, Armemia (AFX) - The Armenian energy ministry said the Cogema
Logistics unit of French engineering group Areva has been chosen
to build a new 10 mln eur nuclear waste facility for the country's
controversial Metsamor reactor.
Cogema Logistics will build a second waste disposal facility in
three phases between 2007 and 2018, said ministry spokesperson Lucin
Arutyunian.
The EU has asked Armenia to close the Metsamor reactor because of
safety concerns, but the power station, built in 1977, accounts for
about 40 pct of electricity production in the country.
