    Labor dispute settled at Indian Point By ROGER WITHERSPOON, The Journal News.com, NY
    Two craft workers were fired and four rehired at the Indian Point 2 nuclear plant yesterday in a compromise resolution to a labor dispute that triggered a sickout Tuesday by 40 electricians and carpenters.

    The electricians are part of a group of more than 500 contract workers brought to the plant in Buchanan to help with the month-long shutdown and exchange of nuclear fuel scheduled to begin tonight. The dispute stemmed from criticism of plant safety practices levelled by the workers during a training class Oct. 14.
