Do you want to have world-wide information or only on the US? Worldwide
there are many new nuclear power plants under construction and every year a
few start up producing electricity. For instance a new one will start
within short time in the Czech Republic. Information on the status of
nuclear power plants - in operation, under construction, planned.... can be
found at the IAEA website: www.iaea.or.at/worldatom.

I do not think that any nuclear power plant had to be shut down because of
lack of storage place for nuclear waste (you probably mean the storage of
burnt up fuel rods?).
