Oh, > well. Should have hired The Boring Company. Anybody but Bechtel the corporation behind Boston's legendary Big Dig. It only took twice as long and cost twice as much as anticipated. Where does the tunnel go? Seabrook Station in New Hampshire has 2 3 mile long tunnels going out into the ocean. When concerns were raised about the temperature rise from the exhaust tunnel the answer was 'The lobsters will love the nice warm water!'. Seabrook bankrupted Public Service of New Hampshire but at least it's still operating. Maine Yankee and Vermont Yankee were killed by cheap hydro from Quebec among other things. I wasn't enthused back in the '80s but not because of nuclear technology. I thought their estimated of projected demand were too high and the plants weren't economically feasible. New England's manufacturing was leaving and the population wasn't increasing enough to make up the difference with residential demand. No problem today -- just build an AI data center. Hopefully the SMRs work out.
