  Southern Co. has been performing tests there needed to apply for an initial permit for a nuclear plant, company spokesman Steve Higginbottom said Wednesday.
  
  The company plans to apply for that first permit next year.The permit requires the company to submit environmental and geological information about the land.Southern Co. is doing the testing at the Plant Vogtle site to get that information, Higginbottom said.
  
  But Higginbottom said the company has not yet made a decision to build a new nuclear plant there.
  
  No new nuclear power plant projects have been licensed since the 1979 partial meltdown at Three Mile Island in Pennsylvania.Construction on the two existing nuclear units at Plant Vogtle began before that, although the units were not completed until the late 1980s.
  
  The Bush administration has been promoting nuclear power and supported a new, streamlined permitting process to encourage utilities to try again.
  
  Higginbottom said a new nuclear power plant would take about 10 years to build.

  Southern Company spokesman Steve Higginbottom said the current suspected leak poses "no impact on public health and safety."
  
  Higginbottom added, "The leak is below limits the Nuclear Regulatory Commission would require us to shut down.We are taking the proactive step to go ahead and shut the unit down and find the leak."
  
  Higginbottom said higher radiation levels have been detected, but he told WRDW-TV in Augusta that the levels are not high enough to pose a threat to the public or to employees.
