...nor had there been any impact on the environment

I think that impact assessment might be different from the perspective of the julienned jellyfish.

Good. I’ve seen those old movies where they didn’t take the proper precautions at some nuclear power plant and we ended up with giat sea creatures. Godzilla was bad enough, the last thing we need are giant radioactive jelly fish destroying London.

Those old movies were documentaries, weren’t they?

That’s still better than the exhaust which is blocked by a single two hundred foot wide radioactive jellyfish.

I’m presumming these are “traveling screens” ( i.e. an endless belt of screeening that dumps debris into a cleanup system). Most I’ve seen do have a “screen wash” feature to disloge sticky debris but I can see where these gooey critters could overmatch the system. OTOH, why not send the critters through the condensers and discharge the resultant cooked critter to the local scavengers ? (Yeah I know; they’ll plug up the tube sheets.) >PS

Sounds like they need a few of Johnny Carson’s
“Bass-O-Matics” near the intake screens!
