Summary

Significance: The Haddam Neck Nuclear Power Plant was one of the earliest commercial scale nuclear power stations in the United States, and was eligible for the National Register of Historic Places. Located on the Connecticut River, the Screenwell House supported four pumps feeding the Circulating Water System which provided cooling water to the main condensers in the Turbine Building (HAER No. CT-185-C), four pumps for the Service Water System which cooled all other plant components and served additional secondary foundations, a pump for washing of traveling intake screens, and two fire pumps serving the entire plant. Chemical controls in the Screenwell House inhibited marine bacterial growth in the plant equipment using river water.
