meatloaf :" Nuclear power facilities are required to have a rolling five year maintenance plan
that’s monitored and approved by the NRC. "

I believe that it takes 7-10 additional years to decommission a nuclear power plant.
Nuclear power plants are licensed and commissioned by the Federal government NRC and are Federal property, even if run by a corporate energy company.
Isn't that true ?

I’ve never heard of them being federal property.

The Federal Energy Regulatory Commission (FERC) requires that all power plants submit the cost of construction broken down in a code of accounts for depreciation purposes. That’s for nukes and non nukes.

That Makes no sense if the federal government owned them.
