LACBWR History Video
The LACBWR History Video showcases Dairyland Power's commitment to safety and sustainability, even when it comes to the challenges of decommissioning a nuclear site. The La Crosse Boiling Water Reactor (LACBWR), a nuclear power plant, opened and started commercial operation in the '60s. However, due to not enough watts coming out of the plant, it needed to be closed down. Dairyland has incurred all storage costs along with the transfer and storage of nuclear waste, as the US government has failed to provide safe and permanent solutions for spent nuclear materials. Dairyland has filed and won lawsuits against the US government to help safely decommission and dispose of the material. The challenges of decommissioning a nuclear site show Dairyland's dedication to the safety of its employees and the public.
