OK... Dresden 1 was the first commercial reactor but not first to 'retire'. Fermi 1 was a commercial reactor owned by Detroit Edison that shutdown in 1973 and the NRC states completed decommisioning in 1975.http://www.nrc.gov/info-finder/decommissioning/power-reactor/enrico-fermi-atomic-power-plant-unit-1.html
