There was an explosion this week, at the Indian Point nuclear power plant, about twenty-five miles north of New York City. Officials in the four surrounding counties opened their emergency response centers, in case a regional evacuation was necessary. Indian Point Reactor Number 2 was shut down. The explosion occurred in a massive transformer, weighing about 900,000 pounds. Thankfully, there was no leakage of radioactive materials, and no on was hurt.
Also this week, in Vernon, Vermont, the Vermont Yankee nuclear plant was forced to shut down. Radioactive water was found to be seeping from a leaking pipe. For more information, click here or here.
