(Tucker, Georgia) (30%), the Municipal Electric Authority of Georgia (MEAG Power) (Atlanta) (22.7%) and Dalton Utilities (Dalton, Georgia) (1.6%)--celebrated a win on July 31 when the Alvin W. Vogtle Nuclear Power Station Unit 3 began commercial operations. But it was an ugly one that came years late and billions of dollars over budget.
