French plans to build a nuclear-waste repository were set back when two public meetings were postponed by local opposition.

A debate scheduled for tomorrow in Saint Didier, northeastern France, and another in the nearby town of Joinville on June 6 have been pushed back, organizers said in a statement yesterday. The new dates are yet to be determined.
