It was near the North Anna nuclear plant which was built to withstand 6.0. Not much margin of error there.

Especially considering it was built on a fault. The presence of the fault was 'omitted' from permitting data.

Thanks for the link. Useful information, especially since Maryland, Washington, DC, and New Jersey residents/governments are being persuaded that having Exelon Corp. be allowed to take over PEPCO for DC and MD, and I don’t know who for New Jersey is a good thing. With 23 aging nuclear plants for which consumers will become responsible if this takeover occurs, it is important to realize the very serious downside. In the case of MD/DC, consumers contract with PEPCO to deliver electricity from whatever source they can choose to provide it. With Exelon they will be receiving their electricity from Exelon alone and be saddled with all costs related to these 23 nuclear plants which even includes Three Mile Island.
