The history of Indian Point 3 was very similar, but instead of shutting it down, the NYPA brought in competent management which was able to dramatically improve operations at the plant. It ultimately become one of the safest and most efficient in the country. The primary reason that Rancho Seco was shut down was that the power wasn't needed at the time. However, that's pretty short-sighted decision making for a facility with a lifetime measured in decades. It sure would be nice to have that power now.
