What a bunch of BS about radiation release.

Yeah it's a serious situation but I'm so tired of the BS you all post.
 Quoting: Anonymous Coward 1340858


yea i hate stupid ass people who want views and add bullshit to their thread titles. it says nothing about radiation leaking. but that also doesn't mean it isn't.

my question is how the fuck did it catch on fire if it's been shut down since april?
 Quoting: Anonymous Coward 1101188


Being shut down doesn't mean squawt. The rods still need to be kept cool. Besides that, the water level is expected to rise another 5 feet. How's that for a headline skippy?

What the heck?

A midwest tsnuami possible like Fukushima?

****

A fire in an electrical switch room on Tuesday, June 9 briefly knocked out cooling for a pool holding spent nuclear fuel at the Fort Calhoun nuclear plant outside Omaha, Neb., plant officials said. The cause of the fire is still under investigation.

Back in January 2010, the Nuclear Regulatory Commission cited the plant for failure to maintain procedures for combatting a significant flood, as previously recommended.

The plant is now engulfed in flood waters, which are expected to rise five more feet. Fairewinds Associates' Arnie Gundersen says that the plant is built to sustain current flooding but if any one of several surrounding dams breach, it could cause a Midwestern tsunami and lead to a situation similar to the Fukushima disaster, as there are several years' worth of very radioactive spent fuel rods in the cooling pools.

That's just the tip of the iceberg...

 Quoting: Anonymous Coward 1101793

They had a temporary loss of cooling and were simply pumping water like at fukushima.. If youve been following that at all Id say that you would have a little more sense of gallows humor. Weve already been bathed in radioactive hot particles and are continuing to be. 4700 tons of spent fuel rods and fuel contained in the reactors are being held on the brink by pumping water in fukushima. 4700 TONS. Including plutonium and depleted uranium freely exposed to the environment

This is overkill...a drop in the bucket so to speak

Nuke plant in deep trouble; this one looks like it was built too close to the river.
 Quoting: Anonymous Coward 1426061


They're all built next to water, because they need massive cooling. And of course they discharge hot water which even if not radioactive is NOT good for local wildlife.

Go to google maps and type in "San Luis Obispo". Track down along the coast and find the place where the water goes from deep blue to bright turquoise. There's your Diablo Canyon NPP.

Flood Rumor Control
Flood Rumor Control

Following are responses to flood-related rumors that OPPD has heard about.

Rumor: Fort Calhoun Nuclear Station is at a Level 4 emergency or level 4 alert.

This terminology is not accurate, and is not how emergencies at nuclear power plants are classified.
Fort Calhoun Station (FCS) declared a Notification of Unusual Event (NOUE) on June 6.
A NOUE is the least-serious of four emergency classifications established by the Nuclear Regulatory Commission.
FCS declared a NOUE because the Missouri River was projected to reach 1,004 feet above mean sea level. (It reached that height on June 9.)
The FCS plant’s reactor has been in cold shut down for a planned refueling outage since April 9. It will remain in that condition until the river recedes.
The reactor and spent-fuel pool are in a normal, stable condition and are both protected; there has been no release of radioactivity and none is expected.
Rumor: A no-fly zone was set up around Fort Calhoun Nuclear Station because of a release of radiation, similar to what happened with the Fukushima reactors in Japan.

There has been no release of radioactivity at Fort Calhoun Station due to the flooding and none is expected.
The flight restrictions were set up by the FAA as a result of Missouri river flooding.
OPPD’s extensive, preplanned actions to protect the FCS reactor and spent-fuel pool from the floodwaters have been effective.
The reactor is housed in a watertight containment building, and is in a normal and safe “cold shutdown” condition, covered by more than 23 feet of purified reactor coolant water.
In addition, OPPD has installed Aqua Dams® and other berms around such vital equipment and buildings at the FCS site.
Rumor: Because of a fire at Fort Calhoun Nuclear Station on June 7, the plant’s spent-fuel pool was in danger of boiling and releasing radioactivity.

There was no such imminent danger with the Fort Calhoun Station spent-fuel pool.
Due to a fire in an electrical switchgear room at FCS on the morning of June 7, the plant temporarily lost power to a pump that cools the spent-fuel pool.
The fire-suppression system in that switchgear room operated as designed, extinguishing the fire quickly.
FCS plant operators switched the spent-fuel pool cooling system to an installed backup pump about 90 minutes after the loss of power.
During the interruption of cooling, temperature of the pool increased a few degrees, but the pool was never in danger of boiling.
Due to this situation, FCS declared an Alert at about 9:40 a.m. on June 7.
An alert is the second-least-serious of four emergency classifications established by the Nuclear Regulatory Commission.
At about 1:15 p.m. on June 7, FCS operators declared they had taken all appropriate measures to safely return to the previously declared Notification of Unusual Event emergency classification. (See first item above.)
Rumor: OPPD will run out of coal if railroads cannot reach the plants.

Currently, trains are arriving at both of OPPD’s coal-fired power plants. OPPD and a private contractor have raised the tracks at Nebraska City Station to allow coal to continue to be delivered to the plant.
OPPD has several months' worth of coal already on plant sites.
Rumor: A red flag tied to an overhead power line means OPPD has – or is about to – de-energize that line and cut power to the area.

An orange ball or red flag on an overhead line serves as a warning to alert aircraft and operators of heavy equipment of an energized line.
A red flag on a power pole means power has been disconnected at that pole.

some of the flood precautions themselves have unnerved people:

>>A fire at the outset of flooding temporarily disrupted power to the spent fuel pool.

>>The nuclear station shifted to an alert status.

>>Flights over the plant have been restricted.

>>Fort Calhoun was and continues to be one of the NRC's most tightly monitored plants because of problems it had before the flooding.

Dricks said the NRC has taken the unusual step of sending more inspectors and a branch chief to Fort Calhoun. A branch chief is a top regional regulator. In this case, it's the individual responsible for overseeing Fort Calhoun inspections and compliance.

Also, OPPD is bringing in additional boats, food and water for employees, which is not a cause for alarm, Dricks said.
