Abstract: Historically, nuclear power facilities have been popular in the specific "host" communities where they have been built. The Three Mile Island (TMI) accident may have ended that. No known preTMl host community survey showed more than 33 percent opposition; no known post-TMl survey has shown less than 50 percent opposition. Pre/postTMl status explains over 70 percent of the variation across surveys—despite major variations in question wording, survey locations, and other factors. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
