And my mind isn't fully functioning yet. How far is this from the aquifer? Are we in danger of destroying one of the largest underground water systems that supplies many states?

Nuclear has always scared me, I'll admit. But this doesn't sound good. It sounds like they took the least of states and are willing to destroy it for what? 10000 homes? But we have miles and miles of flat plains that could support solar and we can't do that?
