"Nuclear Plant's Dome Coming Down
Demolition Work Lowers Concrete Structure By 100 Feet, And Removal Of The Rest Should Begin Soon
July 6, 2006
HADDAM -- The landmark concrete dome that for decades housed Connecticut Yankee nuclear power plant's reactor has been markedly lowered.
The company expects to fully demolish the reactor containment dome this month and restore the landscape along the Haddam stretch of the Connecticut River.
Connecticut Yankee permanently shut down in 1996, after producing 110 billion kilowatt hours of electricity over 28 years.
Since April, demolition crews have shortened the dome's height from 175 to 75 feet.
Connecticut Yankee spokeswoman Kelley Smith reported Wednesday that decommissioning at the Haddam Neck plant site is more than 90 percent completed.
