“Seismic risk: The Nuclear Regulatory Commission’s estimate of the risk each year of an earthquake intense enough to cause core damage to the reactor at North Anna was 1 in 22,727, according to an NRC study published in August 2010.[9][10]”

Hmmmm....hope everything is ok there. How close is this to the epicenter?
