30 km - just under 19 miles - as the crow flies.
And I work a lot closer to it.

(It allows me to enter a UK postcode but only has US plants in it - apparently according to CNN the internet stops at the US border )

Nearest one to me is ~50 miles (Torness).

There's one within 100 miles, if you (as CNN does) exclude the local university's reactor. Meanwhile, there are 11 coal-fired power plants within 100 miles of me: Existing U.S. Coal Plants - SourceWatch

CNN doesn't care, though. The impact of coal is too spread out and subtle to make the news.

Apparently their ability to write working web code is no greater that their knowledge of radiation physics. On a scale of 0-10, seems that both would require a leading 0. :-) Map that displays as just a black area with orange dots, information apparently conveyed in popups... I say apparently, because of course I have popups blocked. Doesn't everyone?
