Salem, OR, 97302 Email:skazz999w@hotmail.com Phone:5039744858 General Comment The Holtec recommissioning business has spawned interest in bringing to life old, dead, reactors. One of them is at Three Mile Island. Constellation Energy, subsumed by Exelon Generation and spun off in charge of its nuclear power operations, has jumped on the bandwagon for federal funds to look at recommissioning the decommissioning Three Mile Island Unit 1 nuclear power station in Middletown, PA. TMI, along with the radioactive wreck of Unit 2, was certified to the Nuclear Regulatory Commission as permanently closed, defueled and slated for decontamination, dismantlement and radioactive site cleanup. There are 14 permanently closed US reactors awaiting decommissioning. These are old reactors, embrittled by radiation. Extending their operations another 20 or so years is a very bad idea.
Another old "zombie" reactor is at Diablo Canyon. The Biden administration said it has approved conditional funding of up to $1.1 billion to prevent the closure of the Diablo Canyon nuclear power plant in California, as part of its effort to fight climate change.
