[/quote] replace them with coal burning power plants!! [/quote] Just like that, eh? It's that easy? Tell me, how are we supposed decommission them when we have ZERO control over such things? It takes years by the way. It's not as simple as you make it out to be, it's also never going to happen and you know this so why are you going on about it? [/quote]
Original Message
The Palisades nuclear power plant is shut down. Officials at the plant removed it from service due to what is being described as a "small leak" in the plant's safety injection and refueling water tank. That tank holds as much as 300-thousand gallons of water that is used remove heat from the reactor's core in the event of a coolant accident and to increase "shutdown safety margin."
