Written by NukeWorker from public records: facts that do not change. Operator, status and capacity come from the live data elsewhere on this page. Sources: Wikipedia: Shoreham Nuclear Power Plant.
Shoreham Nuclear Power Plant was at Shoreham, on the north shore of Long Island in Suffolk County, New York, on Long Island Sound. The Long Island Lighting Company (LILCO) built it, with a General Electric boiling water reactor.

Construction began on November 1, 1972, and was completed in 1984 at a cost of about $6 billion. In 1983 Suffolk County determined the area could not be safely evacuated, and Governor Mario Cuomo ordered state officials not to approve LILCO's evacuation plan. In 1985 LILCO received permission for tests at 5 percent power. On May 19, 1989, LILCO agreed not to operate the plant. The Long Island Power Authority bought it in 1992 for $1, and decommissioning was completed in 1994.
