Google the Shoreham nuclear power plant that never ever went into production and is now sitting on prime shoreline real estate.  It is too expensive to dismantle so it just sits there in the middle of that community.  What a waste of resources.

By the way, you may be interested to know that Canada recently began a joint project with China to research and deverlop nuclear power plants that reuses the "spent" fuel i.e. recycling the fuel thereby reducing the waste storage problem.
