Dominion's Kewaunee Closing Reflects Situation Unique to Company, NEI Says

The Nuclear Energy Institute’s president and chief executive officer, Marvin Fertel, made the following remarks in reaction to Dominion’s announcement today that it plans to close and decommission its Kewaunee Power Station in Wisconsin.
