Operating or closed.
Including their individual histories, locations, technical details, official contact points, and local activist groups.
There are over 100 operating nuclear power plants in America and 16 non-operational power plants, and a large number of nuclear fuel and weapons facilities. The more you know about these places, the more frightened you’ll be -- and should be!
How can we protect our nuclear power plants?
Don’t count on the plant security forces -- they aren’t nearly strong enough. These plants are each vulnerable to air strikes, truck bombs, boat bombs, and of course, the well-equipped and well-armed single madman or small group of terrorists. All anyone needs to do is toss a grenade into a Spent Fuel Pool and hundreds of thousands or even MILLIONS could die.
WE CAN SIGNIFICANTLY REDUCE OUR VULNERABILITIES BY CLOSING / CONVERTING THE NUKE PLANTS TO NATURAL GAS AND WIND FARMS, ETC..
(That is exactly what they did to Fort St. Vrain in Colorado.) The energy price per kilowatt is much lower than for nuclear or any other energy source. And there’s no “decommissioning” of wind turbines, either.
The Nuclear Regulatory Commission is a lap-dog agency which does little to protect the public and much to inhibit the replacement of nuclear technology with other, safer energy sources. They will not protect you. In fact, RIGHT NOW they are relicensing many of these reactors for another 20 years each of dangerous operation.
It’s time for a change, America!
This country needs to wise up to the lie that we’ll “freeze in the dark” if we turn off the nukes. There are clean energy solutions which we must adopt.

A note on Naval Reactors (written by John P. Shannon, November, 2001):
KAPL [Knolls Atomic Power Laboratory] presently has no land based power plants in operation. The last two were shut down as a result of my TV appearance a few weeks ago.
The two available to be restarted, when no one is watching, are located in West Milton, NY, about 25 miles north of Albany, which is the capital of NY, and ten miles west of NY's premier tourist attraction during June, July and August. During this time ten's of thousands of visitors are in town, many of them millionaires.
Naval Nuclear Power Plants are, however, located at Pearl Harbor, HI, Norfolk, VA, Puget Sound, Washington State, Charleston, SC and San Diego, CA.
Many are located at Sea at all times.
I have always thought that sabotage at one of the big Navy Bases would be a disaster, however, the Navy has always considered sabotage to be a non credible scenario and has never taken plans to protect against such an act. We had many arguments on this subject many times at KAPL and most of us [Engineers] were in favor of planning for Sabotage.
The morons who really run the show the so called "...decision makers..." would never pay for the extra engineering effort to protect against the possibility of sabotage at any Naval Reactor Facility, including shipyards.

In the chart below:
AEC = Atomic Energy Commission (The AEC was split into the DOE and the NRC in 1974)
DOE = Department of Energy ( www.doe.gov )
NRC = Nuclear Regulatory Commission ( www.nrc.gov )
CRAC-2 = 1982 government estimates of “worst case” deaths for various reactors. These are highly dated underestimations which nevertheless are still interesting. Updating of the CRAC-2 analysis is not required for plant relicensing, even though the most vulnerable elements at the sites ­ the spent fuel pools and dry storage casks ­ are not included in the CRAC-2 assessment (because they were not expected to be there). For more information about CRAC-2 including a breakdown of the casualty figures, “scaling” notes, and how to order a copy of the full CRAC-2 report, please visit: http://www.mothersalert.org/crac.html . From there you’ll find lots of other radiation web sites.
Type: PWR = Pressurized Water Reactor (All PWRs use steam generators to produce the steam that drives the plant’s turbines. Primary water flows through 4,000 ­ 15,000 tubes, depending on design. These tubes are subject to degradation from corrosion, cracking, fatigue, and wear (Source: ORNL 1999 NPP Analysis, Appendix E-3). Ice-Condenser type PWR plants have smaller and weaker containments than most other reactor types.)
Type: BWR = Boiling Water Reactor (Mark 1: GE single-cycle forced-circulation boiling water reactor)
Mfg: AC = Allis-Chalmers
Mfg: W = Westinghouse
Mfg: GE = General Electric
Mfg: B&W = Babcock & Wilcox
Mfg: CE = Combustion Engineering
Mfg: OPS = Offshore Power Systems (Westinghouse-Tenneco)
ISFSI = Independent Spent Fuel Storage Installation. (Also known as Dry Cask Storage, it is extremely dangerous and should not be allowed. The DOE projects that by 2010 82 nuclear plants at 52 sites will have to add approx. 10,000 MTU of Dry Cask Storage. (Source: ORNL 1999 NPP Analysis, Appendix E-3))
Ultimate Heat Sink = Technical term for where the radioactive waste will seep for thousands of years if there’s a meltdown. (The real “ultimate heat sink” and ultimate disposal location for all reactor waste is our biosphere and our bodies.)

Late 1990s: Cracking in the reactor's internals has made NM1 "the worst case of cracking in the nuclear industry" (Union of Concerned Scientists). Most attention has focused on the core shroud, but other cracked pieces (emergency condensers, main drain line, control rod stub tubes) suggest the problem is pervasive. 1979 - 1996: Systemic mismanagement at NM1 result in ~200 cited violations or nearly 1/month. 1987 ­ 1989: NRC shuts NM1 for over 2 years after NiMo revealed they had covered up huge waste-handling problems at NM1. For years, the waste building was flooded with 40,000 gallons of primary coolant water; three months prior to that announcement, NM1 dumped 50,000 gallons of coolant directly from the reactor into Lake Ontario. (Sources: Nukebusters Nine Mile Point web site.)
A 15-year construction time and $6.4 billion cost made NM2 the most expensive reactor in the world; some groups estimated the cost at around $8 billion. Faulty construction work continues to plague the plant. 1991: Electrical system failure in the control room nearly causes a meltdown. April 1999: A virtually identical event causes a dangerously low coolant level, and the reactor core isolation cooling system (RCIC) malfunctioned. The RCIC was been declared inoperable on at least three other occasions, including during another emergency shutdown (low water coolant level) on the day the AmerGen deal was announced. After only 10 years of operation, large cracks were found in NM2's core shroud. (Sources: Nukebusters Nine Mile Point web site.)

Salem and Hope Creek are built on “Artificial Island”, its real name, because the land was built from dredging the Delaware River (there was no land there to begin with). There is no rock bottom. Thousands of “pilings” (stilts) were hammered 75 feet down, and the complex “floats” on this mudpile. They never heard of “liquefaction”. A fault which has had 75 earthquakes in the past 200 years runs down the middle of the Delaware River. (Source: Frieda A. Berryhill.)

HTGR/ GA Helium at a pressure of about 700 psia circulated around the core heats a secondary system at 2,400 psig and 1,000° F (Source: C.H.Fuller, IAEA web site.)
Core was made of 1,482 hexagonal fuel elements consisting of a graphite block loaded with triso-coated uranium and thorium particles bonded into cylindrical rods. (Source: C. H. Fuller report, IAEA.) Fueling began Dec. 27th, 1973. First commercial power production was Dec, 1976.
First announced in March, 1965. Construction began in April, 1968. (Source: fsv.homestead.com )
CLOSED Aug. 1989 (prematurely): “Nuclear operations came to a close in 1989 due to continued problems with the plant. Decommissioning of the reactor as well as shipping of all nuclear fuel off-site to a U.S. Department of Energy managed facility was complete in 1992.” (Source: fsv.homestead.com )

Fort St. Vrain was “the only high temperature gas-cooled (HTGR) power reactor in the United States. The plant [featured] a helium-cooled reactor with a uranium-thorium fuel cycle.” (Source: International Atomic Energy Agency web site.)
Wishful thinking: “The operational history of Fort St. Vrain can be characterized by low availability and inconsistent production. … The circulators … experienced failures in bolting due to chloride stress corrosion cracking… three of the top ten months of operation for Fort St. Vrain have been achieved in 1988… The continued operation of Fort St. Vrain will further enhance the MHTGR concept.” (Source: IAEA paper by C. H. Fuller of PSCC.)
Typical problem: “On Feb. 22nd [1982] the reactor was manually scrammed due to high moisture and two control rods failed to scram. Three additional rods exhibited a tendency to stick in the full-out position.” (Source: fsv.homestead.com ) Photos.
