11.Secretary of Energy Advisory Board, Moving Forward With Nuclear Power: Issues and Key Factors, Final Report, January 10, 2005
In this report, based on information from government officials, trade and environmental organizations, new nuclear generation consortia, and vendors, the SEAB recommends financial incentives for new nuclear plant construction "because it is in the national interest to ensure our energy security and reap the environmental benefit arising from the absence of carbon emissions by nuclear power generation."

13.U.S. House of Representatives, Securing America's Energy Future, May 8, 2006
“Nuclear energy must become the primary generator of baseload electricity, thereby relieving the pressure on natural gas prices and dramatically improving atmospheric emissions. To enhance competitiveness and protect American jobs, natural gas must not be used for baseload electricity generation, nor for new generating capacity. Natural gas should be reserved for industries that use it as a feedstock or for primary energy—and cannot substitute for it by fuel-switching.”—Committee on Government Reform, Subcommittee on Energy and Natural Resources

14.Survey: Nuclear Power Plant Neighbors Accept Potential for New Reactor Nearby by Margin of Nearly 3 to 1
Eighty-two percent of Americans living in close proximity to nuclear power plants favor nuclear energy, and 71 percent are willing to see a new reactor built near them, according to a new public opinion survey of more than 1,100 adults across the United States.

15.The Economic Future of Nuclear Power: A Study Conducted at The University of Chicago, August 2004 (Summary)
This independent study demonstrates that new nuclear power plants are competitive with other types of baseload electricity generation once first-of-a-kind engineering costs are absorbed, construction experience gained, and other near-term financing issues resolved. (Full study report - PDF)

18.The Outlook for Nuclear Energy in a Competitive Electricity Business
"Most U.S. nuclear power plants are well-positioned for competition. Measured by total ‘going forward’ costs—operating and maintenance (O&M) costs, fuel costs, ongoing capital requirements, taxes and general and administrative (G&A) expenses—most nuclear units can compete in a deregulated, competitive electricity market."

19.Licensing New Nuclear Power Plants
This fact sheet describes the new reactor licensing process that was put into place by the the NRC in 10 CFR Part 52 that was strengthened and affirmed by Congress as part of the 1992 Energy Policy Act. Also covered are incentives included in the 2005 Energy Policy Act designed to spur the construction of new nuclear power plants.
