Why on Earth would you want to decomission a perfectly good nuclear plant? Nuclear "waste" can be reprocessed into more fuel, or other useful things, and it doesn't cost anything (beyond initial cost) to store it in a nice, deep hole, like for instance the mines the uranium ore came from in the first place.
