31.U.S. DOE EIA Report, New Reactor Designs
This report by the Energy Information Administration of the U.S. Department of Energy from August 2003 provides information and sources of additional information on nuclear reactor designs that are either available to be built in the United States now or anticipated to become available by 2030. Certified designs, those in various stages of certification, those anticipated for certification, and those in the conceptual stage (Generation IV reactors) are included.

32.Secretary of Energy Advisory Board, Moving Forward With Nuclear Power: Issues and Key Factors, Final Report, January 10, 2005
In this report, based on information from government officials, trade and environmental organizations, new nuclear generation consortia, and vendors, the SEAB recommends financial incentives for new nuclear plant construction "because it is in the national interest to ensure our energy security and reap the environmental benefit arising from the absence of carbon emissions by nuclear power generation."

34.U.S. House of Representatives, Securing America's Energy Future, May 8, 2006
“Nuclear energy must become the primary generator of baseload electricity, thereby relieving the pressure on natural gas prices and dramatically improving atmospheric emissions. To enhance competitiveness and protect American jobs, natural gas must not be used for baseload electricity generation, nor for new generating capacity. Natural gas should be reserved for industries that use it as a feedstock or for primary energy—and cannot substitute for it by fuel-switching.”—Committee on Government Reform, Subcommittee on Energy and Natural Resources

35.Survey: Nuclear Power Plant Neighbors Accept Potential for New Reactor Nearby by Margin of Nearly 3 to 1
Eighty-two percent of Americans living in close proximity to nuclear power plants favor nuclear energy, and 71 percent are willing to see a new reactor built near them, according to a new public opinion survey of more than 1,100 adults across the United States.

36.Risk Characterization of the Potential Consequences of an Armed Terrorist Ground Attack on a U.S. Nuclear Power Plant (EPRI Public Health Analysis)
This independent study demonstrates through state-of-the-art computer probabilistic, risk-assessment techniques that there would be one short-term fatality every 6,000 years at a nuclear plant and indistinguishable long-term cancer fatality risks from terrorist ground attacks involving a nuclear power plant. To put this in perspective, the short-term fatality estimate is over 80 times lower than NRC safety goals. The study was conducted by EPRI (Electric Power Research Institute).

37.American Council on Science and Health, News Release, Science Panel Finds Low-Level Radiation Unlikely to Harm Health, September 23, 2005
The American Council on Science and Health finds in its recently released report, “The Health Effects of Low-Level Radiation,” that low-level radiation from natural or manmade sources is unlikely to harm human health.

38.The Economic Future of Nuclear Power: A Study Conducted at The University of Chicago, August 2004 (Summary)
This independent study demonstrates that new nuclear power plants are competitive with other types of baseload electricity generation once first-of-a-kind engineering costs are absorbed, construction experience gained, and other near-term financing issues resolved. (Full study report - PDF)
