The plants were first envisioned in 1969 by an engineer at PSE&G and the reactors were ordered in 1972 for operation starting in the mid-1980s. However, due to increasing costs and environmental protests, the plants were canceled in 1978. 1166: 1176: 257: 868: 1127: 977: 250: 1108: 1093: 833: 195: 1171: 1022: 419: 243: 1098: 319: 494: 404: 1181: 1062: 294: 1080: 783: 733: 489: 429: 324: 32: 803: 693: 589: 524: 479: 1075: 808: 788: 584: 579: 394: 304: 1103: 937: 738: 615: 594: 504: 459: 364: 334: 703: 1113: 549: 499: 284: 848: 688: 519: 384: 379: 339: 289: 266: 962: 942: 853: 818: 813: 559: 952: 882: 798: 773: 753: 509: 464: 434: 164: 225: 1012: 987: 982: 768: 718: 630: 299: 1017: 1007: 922: 917: 713: 374: 142: 1027: 912: 902: 793: 778: 743: 599: 414: 314: 997: 932: 823: 620: 474: 36: 698: 554: 309: 1052: 992: 957: 892: 858: 838: 758: 708: 681: 666: 661: 646: 625: 574: 484: 359: 1070: 972: 927: 843: 828: 569: 514: 424: 329: 185: 132: 66: 47: 967: 947: 907: 1032: 439: 389: 369: 1002: 763: 564: 409: 399: 74: 62: 469: 82: 897: 544: 24: 221: 217: 723: 104: 58: 54:(net) reactors were ordered in 1973.
