The Ft. Calhoun power plant has been closed since 2011 when it flooded. It was totally decommissioned in 2016.The Cooper Power Plant at Brownsville is still in operation and there are no plans to shut it down. It is far enough south of most of SW Iowa that prevailing winds should keep any potential problems away from the area.

In fact back in the depression era, many people lived in dugouts in the hills.
