Millstone units 2 and 3 are located at a former quarry in Waterford, Connecticut. The site covers about 500 acres. The Millstone complex was built by a consortium of utilities. Both units were shut down between 1996 and 1998 due to safety problems. Millstone 1 was shut down in November 1995 before being permanently closed in July 1998. Units 2 and 3 were sold and continue to operate.
The facility is now collectively known as the Dominion Power Station.
