Dem there's a few things that are creepabout nuclear plants and this incident, to me.
The shot of a plant surrounded by water's a good start, it's close to breeching the wall. The nuclear engineer said the dams are not structurally sound and the plant relies on them holding. They're within a foot or two of what they were designed for. If mother nature acts up, they're in trouble. Great design.
Don't call it an emergency pump. Don't want to boil the pool as humidity wipes out containment electrical wiring. Pumps cooling pool not considered safety pumps. Flood encroaching on the wire.
The NRC's incompetent, imo, as they have ignored the biggest danger of nuclear plants, the pools. They don't have containment domes, yet Brookhaven National Labs estimates a zirconium cladding fire can render 70,000 sq mi uninhabitable. Containment domes would make nuclear power way too costly. Then, they allow utility operators to leave fuel in them beyond 5 or 6 years, multiplying the risk. It should be going into dry storage. Why do they ignore it? Safe operation is too costly, it too wouold price nuclear out of the market.
You have claimed to understand nuclear in the past. Why do you ignore this, the risk is worth it, to you?
