Is America's Nuclear Plant Security Force Prepared?

WASHINGTON, The ability of the nation's nuclear
security guard force to protect plants from a terrorist attack cannot be
verified and needs to be independently assessed according to a new report
issued this week by the National Academy of Sciences (NAS), an independent,
private organization chartered by Congress to provide advice to the government
on scientific issues.

Concerns About Wackenhut
The Government Accountability Office (GAO) and Republican and Democratic
Members of Congress have raised questions and concerns about the controversial
plan under which Wackenhut trains and manages adversary teams used in
simulated attacks to test security at nuclear power plants -- half of which
are guarded by Wackenhut's own personnel.
