maybe cuz the desert is dry
Because the power plant is the source of electricity
Seems unlikely. Any power plant is useful only if it can deliver power to where it is required. Also you need a good source of water for cooling. The one clear advantage, however, is that it would be far from populated areas, and hence far less dangerous to people.
You would not be able to obtain the fissile material necessary to build a working model of a nuclear power plant. You could build a model, for sure, but it would not be a working model.
Leo Szilard invented the nuclear reactor in 1933, but did not build it.Enrico Fermi built first nuclear reactor, CP-1 in 1942.Walter Zinn built the first nuclear power plant, EBR-1 in 1951.
For the cooling system of the power plant
A nuclear power plant needs a large heatsink, i.e. cooling water. There is very little cooling water in the middle of a desert. That is why nuclear power plants are generally built on the edge of oceans or lakes, or on large rivers.
It is legal to build a nuclear power plant in the U. S., provided the licenses and permits are granted.

no where
Graphite, Concrete and Lead.

None. Building a nuclear power station is a job for engineers.
In Finland. There are several nuclear power plants in Finland and more are likely to be build.
6-7 billion

I would want them to build it somewhere else, but the same would apply to any type of power plant or industrial plant
