THURMAN, Iowa — MidAmerican Energy appears to be looking at this community 40 miles south of Omaha as a potential site for a new nuclear power facility.
About 40 landowners and other residents in Fremont County recently received invitations to a meeting today that will be hosted by the company in Hamburg.
The note said only that MidAmerican is reviewing sites in Iowa for “future electric generating plants” and that the company plans to take soil samples from properties in the Thurman area.
But fliers left at the Fremont County Courthouse for curious residents were more specific.
Titled: “Nuclear Generation in Iowa,” the flier notes that in 2010, the Iowa Legislature directed MidAmerican to complete a three-year study on the construction of nuclear facilities in the state.
