// Strategic Significance

Kewaunee Nuclear Power Plant is permanently shut down and decommissioning. The plant closed in 2013 due to economic factors. Spent nuclear fuel remains in dry cask storage on the Lake Michigan shoreline.

// Civilian Impact Assessment

Green Bay WI with 300,000 metro residents is the primary population center within 50 miles. The Lake Michigan shoreline location means spent fuel storage faces lake storm and flooding risk.

// Evacuation & Shelter Guidance

No active EPZ evacuation planning. Decommissioning safety protocols and spent fuel security remain active concerns.
