I think Ft. Calhoun is in the process of replacing some (Perhaps all?) of the P-10s in their system.
Every day this week, I've driven by the main entrance to the plant. One of their P-10s stands next to the entrance.
Today, though, was different. This evening when I drove by, there was the P-10...and a new 2001 right next to it! They literally just today installed a new siren, right at the main entrance of the Ft. Calhoun plant, next to the old siren. Freshly-dug dirt is still sitting on the ground around the new metal pole. I would have stopped to take pictures, but nuclear power plants and cameras don't mix very well.
It's always sad to see old sirens getting replaced, especially if they still work (Which I'll admit, not being from this area, I don't know if that particular siren does still work or not).
Omaha tests their sirens on Saturdays? Nuts, just my luck, I'm leaving to go back home Friday evening! Oh well, I'm hoping to get video of Missouri Valley's STL-10 tomorrow. It won't be the best video though, because I forgot to bring my tripod. Still, even shaky video is better than no video.

I didn't see the 15V2T in Fort Calhoun, but I did see an STL-10 behind the fire station, a few blocks away from the P-10. I got some pictures of both. If there is a third siren there, I'm likely missing it because, so far, I've just been driving through the town, not really driving around or stopping.
As for that 2001 out in the middle of nowhere, I've seen it too. That I'm fairly certain is another recent addition/replacement to the nuclear plant's siren system. It's located in the general area I was expecting to find a P-10 (They seem to be spaced about a mile apart).
