Notes
  • Significance: The Haddam Neck Nuclear Power Plant was one of the earliest commercial scale nuclear power stations in the United States, and was eligible for the National Register of Historic Places. The plant’s Circulating Water System pumped river water through the Turbine Building (HAER No. CT-185-C) condenser tubes and returned water to the river at a higher temperature. The canal made sure that heated water actually discharged and did not get back into the intake. The system included the 7000-foot-long discharge canal to reduce water temperature. A rock weir in the canal maintained water elevations in a discharge tunnel from the Turbine Building for operation of other Circulating Water System components. The discharge canal also diluted permitted chemical or radioactive releases to the river from a variety of other plant systems.
