WASHINGTON, Jan. 5, 2015 /PRNewswire/ -- The Mesothelioma Victims Center says, "The US Energy Information Administration has information on the number of operational nuclear power plants across the United States that we would like to share. There are currently 62 commercially operating nuclear power plants with 100 nuclear reactors in 31 states in the United States.

"The 1970's was an exciting time in United States history as construction on many nuclear energy plants gave employment to over 100,000 workers. Unfortunately, asbestos was commonly used in many applications of the construction of these power plants and as a result, individuals who worked at nuclear power plants in the 1950's, 1960's, 1970's, or 1980's had daily exposure to asbestos, and in some instances the exposure was extreme.
"We wanted to share what we found on the EIA web site because as time goes on, many of these plants are being decommissioned. Four reactors were taken out of service in 2013, according to the web site. We fear that many of the workers exposed to asbestos are quietly passing away from mesothelioma without proper compensation.
"We also need to mention that tens of thousands of US Navy Veterans were exposed to asbestos while serving on nuclear powered aircraft carriers and nuclear submarines. If you or your family member has been diagnosed with mesothelioma decades after possible exposure to asbestos while on one of these vessels, please call us at 866-714-6466 or visit http://MesotheliomaVictimsCenter.Com so we can provide you with the nation's best mesothelioma compensation attorneys that all have an incredibly impressive track record of achieving the best possible compensation results for their clients."
The Mesothelioma Victims Center wants to emphasize that prior to the 1980's, workers at US nuclear power plants and nuclear powered US Navy ships or submarines may have had clothing to protect them from radiation exposure, but did not have gear or equipment to protect them from exposure to asbestos. As the Center would like to explain, mesothelioma compensation claims involving a nuclear power plant can produce compensation settlements that exceed one million dollars but vary based on the skill of the attorney.
