Hopes of Building Nation?s First New Nuclear Plant in Decades

Hopes of Building Nation's First New Nuclear Plant in Decades

Good news. Nuclear power must remain a viable option for our energy future. This will not be easy, but it will be a test of our national will. I support clean, safe nuclear power plants, however siting one will be a very painful process.

The US and industry should consider identifying, purchasing and reserving suitable tracts of land for future nuclear plants.

I've been an advocate for 'atomic' power since 1958 when I gave by graduation address on the subject. God, that seems a long time ago!
