YouTube - Arnie Gundersen - Nebraska Nuclear Plant: Emergency Level 4 & Getting Worse - June 14, 2011 (1of3)‏ Has anyone heard of this?
Yeah, it's a media blackout in America on this event, and the situation is very serious there. They may begin to warn the public at the last moment to cover their butts, but only when it becomes most precarious.
ya know, the end doesnty have to come from 1 big thing happening it could be triggered by a lot of little things happening close together and we're sure gettin lots of that lately
The plant is shut down for refueling, it can't be a lot safer than that from a nuclear standpoint. The river is high, and one might suppose that flooding would be possible, but this is by no means a nuclear level 4 event; that is complete hogwash.

Can't someone (i.e. a reporter worth his/her salt) settle this topic quickly by simply going downriver from the plant, taking some water samples and testing them? How about approaching the area with a Geiger counter? Attach a Geiger to a working, flying model airplane and send it in the area and see what readings you get?
ghrit, Thanks, I was curious as to what is going on. I see the rays are strong on this one. LOL The link said "according to the federal government" the same government who says we are in recovery?
Shame on you for not believing the watchers are successfully and faithfully watching themselves!! Why, what's next? Anarchy? It's just CrAzY to think an independent journalist could ever report anything noteworthy! Only CrAzY people would dare doubt the federal overseers! Stay calm. Drink tap water. Relax. Stay numb. Everything is under CONTROL. (note the sarcasm, please)
The Public Citizens group is a Ralph Nader founded organization and purported liberal think tank.... Please pass the salt....
Let's hope so. I'm not exactly praying for disaster here... but I used to build .22 rifles --does this mean none of them will ever malfunction? No. And, they don't come with a 100% government cover-up guarantee either! Maybe the flood will subside, no further fires will break out, and everybody will sing happy melodies. That sure would be nice for a change.
Our infrastructure is going down, and our nuclear plants should be a priority. All our politicians are worried about is getting re-elected, while Rome burns.
There's a member on Arfcom that works at this power plant. According him, not a big deal. The plant has been on shutdown for refueling since April or so. More than long enough for things to cool down, hence no Jap-like meltdown. They have their flooding procedures and plans worked out and are executing them.
