Anonymous Coward User ID: 1251597 India 06/30/2011 12:04 AM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | Oh My!?.. Quoting: SC 1409189Snipped.. 'Masses of jellyfish entering the Torness nuclear power plant's cooling water inflow area led EDF Energy to shut both units there manually on Tuesday, the company said. "This is temporary and the reactors will be restarted once the jellyfish situation subsides," a spokeswoman for EDF Energy said. The two 640-megawatt (MW) units in Scotland went off line on Tuesday afternoon, National Grid data showed. The presence of jellyfish, seaweed and other marine life is not uncommon,EDF Energy said' Link.. [link to hisz.rsoe.hu] Also Two Weeks Ago at Hinkly Point Nuclear Power Station they had to remove an Atlantic Gray Seal from the Inflow Pipes although they say this did not affect the running of the Plant in anyway..(Apparently) Are they pumping sea water to cool reactors ? What else do you expect then ? an elephant entering reactor ? |
