is there still a standing NOTAM about loitering in the vicinity of
power plants dams and refineries? I recall that was pretty typical in
the few years after 2001 but haven't heard much about it lately.

A coal power plant saved one of my longest flights in the Cherokee
once. That was during the time when that NOTAM was active so I was
quick to leave that thermal as soon as i could make it somewhere else.
