10 years is a loooooong time... Lets hope the estimate is correct.
Because, it is all about money... and if nuclear is cheaper it will be an option (regardless of recent tragic events in Japan).
BTW, I lived 60 km away (downstream) from nuclear plant, from early '80-ties until early '90-ties.
This particular plant (built by Westinghouse) is still working with full capacity (Krsko, Slovenia) and for 30 years if its operation there was never a significant problem with it.
