“Nuclear plant employee stopped with explosive device”

ARTICLE SNIPPET: “(CNN) — A contract employee at the largest nuclear plant in the nation was stopped at a plant entrance Friday with a “relatively small” explosive device in his truck, officials said.”

ARTICLE SNIPPET: “The employee was on his way to work at the Palo Verde Nuclear Generating Station in Wintersburg, Arizona, at about 6 a.m. when a routine security sweep at a checkpoint found the item, according to Jim McDonald, spokesman for Arizona Public Service Company, which owns the plant.

He described the device as a “pipe bomb.””

ARTICLE SNIPPET: “The device is not something the employee would have used in his work, which deals with computers and software, sheriff’s spokesman Paul Chagolla said.”

“Arizona Nuclear Power Plant Off Lockdown After Security Alert”
Friday, November 02, 2007

WINTERSBURG, Ariz. —

ARTICLE SNIPPET: “In Washington, the Department of Homeland Security also said there was no known terrorism link.

Sheriff’s officials rendered the device safe, Chagolla said.

McDonald said the worker was a procurement engineer, responsible for evaluating equipment purchases for the plant. He wouldn’t say which company employed the man, whom Chagolla described as about 60 years old and originally from South Carolina.

The worker had access to some protected areas of the plant, but not the reactor areas, McDonald said.”
