Nuclear Regulatory Commission spokeswoman Viktoria Mitlyng says over the weekend, some “mildly radioactive” water got into Lake Michigan [...] Michigan Live: Radioactive water was released into Lake Michigan before Palisades nuclear plant shutdown Sunday [...] Before Sunday’s shutdown of Palisades Nuclear Power Plant, about 79 gallons of diluted radioactive water were released into Lake Michigan, the Nuclear Regulatory Commission said Monday, May 6. [...] The nuclear power plant was offline Monday as inspectors and Palisades staff worked on finding and repairing the leak. The tank will have to be drained to determine the location of the leak. [...] Palisades has been under extra scrutiny after a series of safety issues in 2011. In September, the NRC conducted an 11-day inspection of the plant and determined that those problems had been “adequately addressed” by operators, but that additional monitoring was warranted.

Quoting: AKObserver Description Operators of the Palisades Nuclear Power Plant in southwestern Michigan removed it from service Sunday morning because of a water leak from a tank, which last year caused seepage into the control room. Operators said they took the plant offline for repairs to the safety injection/refueling water tank. "There is no impact on the health and safety of plant employees or the public," Palisades spokeswoman Lindsay Rose said. The plant is along Lake Michigan in Van Buren County's Covert Township, about 80 miles east-northeast of Chicago. [link to hisz.rsoe.hu] This plant has been under extra NRC scrutiny after numerous safety issues. It's been shut down nine times since September, 2011, including in February for a separate water leakage problem. It's on the opposite side of the lake from the plant in Illinois that spewed radioactive steam into the air last month.

Since 2012, the plant shut down six times as a result of leaks. It took operators about a week and a half to find the source of the leak. But even though authorities acknowledged that the leaking water was radioactive, the Nuclear Regulatory Commission claims that this poses no risk to the local community, since it is was diluted. Oh! OK! WTH? I think this is just the icing on the cake...watch and see... |
