Yeah, it's big news around here.  Lots of people don't want it.

As for work, I have no clue.  I wouldn't mind myself getting my foot in the door, I just have no clue how, yet.  I Don't even know when the project is starting.

Check out these websites they should give some info. Bechtel is starting a 4-6 year Nuke project in Spring City Tn. Watts bar 2. Should be a nice long term big money job.

From what I have been reading in the local newspaper the NRC will be taking reactor aplliications until 2009 so I wouldnt think construction would start for some time now(2010).  Once it gets going it should last quite awhile.

here ya go http://search2.victoriaadvocate.com/search-bin/search.pl.cgi?product=pubsys&live_template=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.victoriaadvocate.com%2F237%2Findex.html&collection=ENDECA_INDEX&fields=*&preview_template=%2F237%2Findex.html&preview=0&results_per_page=25&aggregate_key=meta_rollup&sort=pubsys_story_print_publish_dt+desc&target=victoriaadvocate&sf_pubsys_story=nuclear

from our local paper.  Search through the articles to find out more.  All I know as of right now is that the company (Exelon) just very recently picked Victoria for the site of the new plant.  As posted above, it still seems to be a while before construction begins.
