Notes
  • To meet the present and future demand for electricity in California, the major private and public power companies, in conjunction with the State of California, are now committed to a program of increased use of nuclear energy as a basis for electrical power generation. Nuclearization of the power industry will provide a source of electricity independent of fossil fuel consumption, and one that can reduce visible amounts of atmospheric pollution. As uranium supplies diminish, emphasis will likely be placed on sodium-cooled, fast-breeder reactors that, under normal operation, have the capacity to generate as much uranium fuel as is consumed, and thus assure abundant future supplies of electricity.
