For perspective, consider that the “safe’ design of 3 Mile Island had been operating for just 90 days before that incident.
Also, and just for the record, the NRC shows 56 nuclear accidents which have happened in the US which have involved the loss of human life or significant property damage with our “safe” designs.
The United States Government Accountability Office reported more than 150 incidents from 2001 to 2006 of nuclear plants not performing within acceptable safety guidelines. According to a 2010 survey of energy accidents, there have been at least 56 **accidents at nuclear reactors in the United States** (defined as incidents that either resulted in the loss of human life or more than US$50,000 of property damage). The most serious of these was the [Three Mile Island accident] in 1979. [Davis-Besse Nuclear Power Plant] has been the source of two of the top five most dangerous nuclear incidents in the [United States](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/United_States) since 1979.[[1]] Relatively few accidents have involved fatalities.[[2]](Nuclear reactor accidents in the United States - Wikipedia)
I post this not to say “there should be no nuke plants” but to show that there are lots of unknown unknowns. So put them in North Dakota or Utah or someplace it doesn’t matter.
