atomic power review: Public Attitudes toward Nuclear Energy- WASH1250
http://atomicpowerreview.blogspot.com/p/public-attitudes-toward-nuclear-energy.html
Your source for nuclear news and analysis since April 16, 2010. Public Attitudes toward Nuclear Energy- WASH1250. APPENDIX III - Public Attitudes.

Your source for nuclear news and analysis since April 16, 2010. Monday, October 20, 2014. Multiple Parties Rush to Restore Doel 4. I've reported quite a bit here (and at ANS Nuclear Cafe) on the ongoing investigation concerning perceived reactor vessel flaws at two Belgian nuclear plants. While that's ongoing, a recent event saw apparent deliberate action to dump turbine lube oil from Doel 4's turbine generator while it was at full load, causing extensive damage. Its conclusion is that this oil leak prob...

atomic power review: SNUPPS - Why it mattered then, and should now
http://atomicpowerreview.blogspot.com/2015/03/snupps-why-it-mattered-then-and-should.html
Your source for nuclear news and analysis since April 16, 2010. Tuesday, March 17, 2015. SNUPPS - Why it mattered then, and should now. The question I need to answer here is this: Why did I write it? SNUPPS mattered then because of the enormous costs being incurred by delay, and the growing costs of regulation. The program sought to cut these in an innovative way. We see these problems now, today. And they're not going to disappear. Feel free to comment on it or ask further questions. I think we need...
