[quote:Waterbug:MV8xNTM3MTQ2XzI1ODA3NzQ0XzcxMEZBMzk=] Nuclear plant's tornado problems revealed Chattanooga, Tenn. — Browns Ferry Nuclear Plant had far more problems during recent tornadoes than TVA told the public after winds took down power lines and the plant went into automatic shutdown. When one of the generators failed at Browns Ferry, there was a temporary loss of shutdown cooling for one reactor for about 47 minutes, but [b]the water level in the reactor never got near the boiling point, officials said[/b]. [b]The water in the reactor boiled low enough to trigger another shutdown alarm [/b]in the control room, but Golden said boiling water still covered the reactor fuel. "I was a little surprised by the list of equipment that didn't work," Lochbaum said after reading TVA's reports to the NRC. "The diesel generator for the security equipment not working was surprising. [b]Fortunately, the plant was able to safely shut down despite all those problems." [/b] http://www.msnbc.msn.com/id/43749477/ns/local_news-chattanooga_tn/t/nuclear-plants-tornado-problems-revealed/ - just business as usual in the nuclear industry. Lying to officials about a problem. So which is it? Did it boil or not? Can't have it both ways. [/quote]
