TVA on Verge of Approving Completion of Watts Bar Unit 2

Back in January, my former NEI colleague Lisa Stiles pointed to a piece in the Huntsville Times that referred to TVA's ongoing plans to rehabilitate its shuttered nuclear capacity, including the never completed Watts Bar Unit 2.

Since then, TVA restarted Browns Ferry Unit 1 in May. Now a blog over at Knox News is reporting that TVA will most likely approve the completion of construction of that unit in a public meeting on August 1.

Again, here's Bill Hobbs from Eco Totality:

Most TVA-generated power currently comes from coal-fired power plants. As a user of TVA electricity, I’m happy they’re moving in a more environmentally-friendly direction.

There's more support out there than you might think.
