An independent analysis is made of the economic, social, and environmental impacts resulting from the passage or non-passage of the California Nuclear Power Plant Initiative. The Initiative would place constraints on nuclear power development in California. The executive summary provides a condensed presentation of the results of the study. Volume 2: An analysis was made of the economic, environmental, and sociocultural impacts of alternative electric generation options on California, surrounding states, and the U.S. as a whole. The relative costs, risks, and benefits of passage or non-passage of the California Nuclear Power Plants Initiative (which would put constraints of nuclear electric generation) were studied. Electricity supply and demand are discussed, including information on capacity requirements, fuels requirements, alternative demand growth patterns, reserves and reliability factors, and supplies of fossil fuels. Electricity price effects, capital-spending patterns, specific sectoral impacts, employment implications, and long-run economic growth effects of alternative scenarios are covered. Environmental impacts of alternative cases and sociocultural impacts are studied. Volume 3: The purpose of the entire study was to evaluate the possible economic, environmental, and sociocultural effects of the passage or non-passage of the California Nuclear Power Plants Initiative, which would place constraints on nuclear power generation in California. This report is made up of 20 appendixes which contain supplemental information on Electricity supply and demand; economic effects; environmental assessment; and sociocultural implications. Volume 4: Volume Four of this study on the effects of the California Nuclear Power Plants Initiative contains comments of five members of the Oversight Committee on the accuracy of the analysis.
