Various nuclear experts are reported as disagreeing over whether this erroneous posting posed a danger to the United States. The document did not actual contain information about the U.S. stockpile of nuclear weapons, but one expert is reported as saying that thieves or terrorists could have taken advantage of the report's information.
Is information about U.S. civilian nuclear sites and programs readily available on the web? Actually . . . yes; it's made available from the U.S. government:
- International Nuclear Safety Center The INSC operates under the auspices of the U.S. Department of Energy. The website provides information on nuclear plants, including maps, research reactors, and fuel facilities from around the world.
- EIA Nuclear Report, Data, Surveys This web page from the U.S. Energy Information Administration provides statistics, reports, analyses, and forecasts about nuclear energy.
