In the 1970s, a small public agency in Washington State undertook one of the most ambitious construction projects in the nation: the building of five large nuclear power plants. Fraught with problems, the agency eventually defaulted on $2.25 billion of municipal bonds and highlighted the nation's troubled attempts to resolve conflict through complex legal cases.
