[ RadSafe ] Nuclear Plants Cancelled? -was RE: US power reactor information

[Boing, Lawrence E.]

All - 

This sort of a list does exist out there in several places - many of the more traditional compiled listings locations I'd call them for this sort of info - ANS listing, Nuclear Engrg International Directory/handbook listing, DOE Reactors Operating, Under Construction or Planned listing....but I am sure NEI may also very well have this info too.

I think that this information we be very hard to come by. Perhaps a good
initial contact would be Ralph Andersen at NEI, rla at nei.org
