Ameren Suspends Its Plan To Construct Nuclear Plant In Missouri
Published:23-April-2009
Ameren Corporation (Ameren) is suspending plans to construct a new nuclear plant in Missouri
due to legislation which would prevent the company from recovering costs. The Missouri law prevents utilities from increasing electric rates to pay for new power plants until the plants are operational. The company had planned to construct a 1,600 megawatt second reactor at its Callaway nuclear plant in central Missouri. The plant provides power to Saint Louis and surrounding areas.

Environmentalists are very good at using legislation and government to curtail projects such as this. I'm not saying this is the case here, but they have done it in the past. Research would have to be done as to who was behind enacting the legislation that would have prevented the company from recovering some of it's costs. Why was such a law enacted, what was the logic, etc... There's a ton of politics and money behind a lot of these decisions.
Motherfucker, THIS had nothing to do with environmentalists. Nothing at all. Not one goddamn iota of this had to do with tree huggers. THIS was the direct failure of Ameren UE as a company to fund it's own venture. I don't give a fuck what "they" have done in the past. IM telling you that Missouri almost had another Nuke plant despite the bullshit rhetorical nonsense you dumb bitches keep quoting. END of fucking story.
And, for real, dude.. your retarded fucking boogeyman paranoia doesn't float in the Show Me State. No one wants to pay for a fucking nuke plant that is ONLY an investment for Ameren EU. Rates would have gone up AND we'd enjoy a nice tax to boot. I guess if you need to see gremelins then so be it.
