The Containment Domes for the newer Reactors Two and Three are massive round structures, not the square box design used on older Nuclear Plants.
The Plant could be buried by a 100 foot Tsunami and it wouldn't make a dent on the Reactor Containment Domes.
We have a local minority of Envirowacks that hate the Plant and will look for any reason to try an shut it down. They even stopped a Toll Road extension that would alleviate traffic on the 5 Freeway because they said it would endanger the local Surfers Beach.
It was a bunch of hooey, but they had the Liberal Coastal Commission on their side so the Toll Road extension was canceled. If they could figure out a way to get rid of San Onofre, they would do it in a heartbeat. Facts mean nothing to Liberals.
Around here we call the Containment Domes the Perfect Pair.
Yes, I try to flip off every “save the Trestles” bumper sticker laden car I see especially in traffic.
