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." [ link to hisz.rsoe.hu] Covert, MI is about 45 minutes northwest of South Bend, IN. I live 30 min north of South Bend and I had a feeling that this may have been a culprit in the radiation spike over SB last week, as the air currents flow that way. Ugh- Palisades is CONSTANTLY being cited for violations!!!
