This alarming letter by Southern California Edison’s Dwight Nunn warns Mitsubishi that its plans for Replacement Steam Generators at San Onofre Nucleqar Generating Station may be fatally flawed due to Water Hammers.
On January 29, 2012, the San Onofre Nuclear Generating Station (SONGS) leaked ionizing radioactive steam into the environment. The owners of SONGS, Southern California Edison, notified the Nuclear Regulatory Commission immediately, but waited four days for the radiation to disperse before it notified the media. As a result, we’ll never really know the full extent of the leak. Get the 2012-02-29-SONGS-Event-Report-ML12090A153. Get the ABC News Report…
