Three Mile Island Reboots with Safety Focus | Baton Rouge News
Description
The former Three Mile Island nuclear plant is set to reboot by mid-next year, sparking a major safety overhaul as federal regulators, FEMA, and Constellation Energy gear up for a full-scale emergency drill and rigorous inspections. With a $1.6 billion investment, the facility aims to generate 835 megawatts—enough to power a large region and offset data center energy needs. Despite lingering radioactive waste from the original accident, officials assure that safety protocols are being tightened across cybersecurity, fire response, and environmental impact, with the NRC confirming a thorough, lean but capable review process.
