Virginia: Latest reports on North Anna nuclear plant
Many
are rebuilding, now eight months after the earthquake, but several
residents say they're having a hard time building confidence in the
safety of the North Anna Nuclear Plant. It's located not far from the
August earthquake's epi-center.
"This seems to be the worst place to put and operate a nuclear power plant," Chris Dorsey told regulators Tuesday night.
Officials
say it meets regulations. And even though the earthquake registered
higher than what the plant was designed to withstand, officials say
nuclear power plants are rarely built to a minimum standard-- that
there was some margin for a larger seismic event.
