Public regulation of site-selection for nuclear power plants is
woven into the fabric of the distinctively-American experience in
exercising government control over privately-owned public
utilities. Originally published in 1977, the authors have
identified the various dimensions of public concern with the
selection of new nuclear power sites. This volume, divided into
four parts, explores the complex issues at the heart of American
nuclear power: Part I contains literature which describes the
process of power-plant siting as conducted by the utilities; Part
II contains studies and reports on the structure and process of
public regulation; Part III describes local government, State, and
other Federal agency regulation of siting; and finally, Part IV
cites selected proposals and analyses of recommendations for
regulatory reform. This is a valuable resource for any student
interested in environmental studies and public policy reform.
