“An accident at an Indian Point reactor on the scale of the recent catastrophe in Japan could cause a swath of land down to the George Washington Bridge to be uninhabitable for generations due to radiation contamination,” NRDC says.
If a 9.6 earthquake and tsunami hit NYC on the scale of the disaster in Japan, they would still be arguing over where to start rebuilding 30 years from now, and which unions get the payoffs. idiots.
This was also my favorite part of this story. I was wondering just how high the wave would have to be over Manhattan to reach Indian Point with the force to take out the containment facility. Pretty high I bet.
