Yellow Creek Nuclear Plant

It was originally planned to have two 1,350-MW (output) reactors operated by the Tennessee Valley Authority (TVA).

Three similar reactors were installed at Palo Verde Nuclear Generating Station near Tonopah, Arizona.

The site is close to the tripoint of Mississippi, Alabama and Tennessee, on a peninsula surrounded by Pickwick Lake.

The site's namesake creek, whose original outlet comprised the western arm of the lake, was almost completely captured by the lake or channelized into the uppermost reach of the Tennessee-Tombigbee Waterway by the time plant construction ceased.
