Owners of Nine Mile Point Unit 1 probing Monday night’s automatic shut down, Post-Standard (Syracuse), May 03, 2011:
The owners of the Nine Mile Point Unit 1 this morning are trying to figure out why the recently refueled nuclear reactor automatically shut down at 8:51 p.m. Monday. [...]
Nuclear power plants are designed to automatically shut down in response to certain indications and conditions, [Constellation Energy Nuclear Group] said.
Nine Mile Unit 1 had been operating at 47 percent power when the shutdown occurred on Monday night.
Unit 1 Operators had lowered reactor power on April 26 based on indications within the feedwater system. The plant had been operating at reduced levels while equipment repairs were in progress, the company said.

i will tell ya for free stuxnet computer virus..
contact the cia and israeli mossad run company called Magna BSP.
also contact siemens in germany who run the computer systems and ask them what they think is causing all these very odd events.

More likely some fool left a tool in the wrong place. It happens, I’ve seen weeks of oil drilling wiped out with one dropped wrench down the hole. Hell, surgeons leave instruments and sponges inside patients.
Here’s the thing about Stuxnet though – it’s a new world. The methods used in Stuxnet were radical innovations, they are being studied and copied, soon there will be many stuxnet-type viruses, corporations paying hush money and being held hostage will be the most likely application. The Iranians found it last year, wonder how they’ve tweaked it by now?
Every nuke plant or any critical installation, will have to have a single computer station with its own unique software and used to program it’s controllers on site, no more sharing, and not a single external port in the computer station. Anything else is a time bomb.

Multiple US Plant challenges begs the question of is the US ready to respond positively to manage it`s many plants in case of a solar storm? We are in a time of solar happenings and the likelihood of a major solar event has been already published even a year ago! The potentiality of a wide spread, perhaps long term electrical disruption is HUGE and will give our continent multiple Fukushima situations to manage immediately, urgently, expensively and indefinitely. Just seeing the rising number of Nuke issue reports as of late makes one wonder if we could handle the partial meltdowns any better.

You’d better the hope the nuke you live near to has a gravity feed for the coolant.

Have been thinking the same. Scientists all predicting Solar Maximum next year,with potential to disable electrical systems across wide areas-wonder how prepared france is,with their 78 reactors?…
Report Comment
I agree, this problem on a worldwide basis seems absolutely insurmountable. The Litmus test is Japan … in my head the World’s Nuclear Best should have rallied and with their combined strengths took Fukushima into control. The failure to gain control of Japan signals to me the industry is not safe or capable of managing itself or its outcomes. It will only take the disappearance of electricity to begin a sequence of worldwide events which will irradiate the entire planet.

this is the fifth or sixth plant to shut down. it’s not the stuxnet. it’s ATMOSPHERIC RADIATION LEVELS that are so high it is triggering auromatic shutdown.
Report Comment
Exactly what I thought. Or, since nuke plants convert water into steam, perhaps they are reading the radiation levels from the water which is being pumped into the plant. Not good.
Report Comment
What an interesting notion. But wouldn’t that imply our government was whitewashing the radiation readings? How can those lil ole amounts in that EPA report cause a big ole reactor to go offline?
Report Comment
I hope your comment is ironic … It’s hard to tell this late in the afternoon.
Report Comment
No independent monitors have found the kinds of levels that would trigger a shutdown either.
Report Comment
I think you are right about this.
Report Comment
I hope that you are so wrong in this.
Report Comment
is there a common link between the u.s. plants which have shutdown?
ie: they are all of a certain design, or vintage.
that might serve to confirm the theory that the shutdowns are linked to radioactive materials released by fukushima.
Report Comment
Yes, Steve….
I had posed the question earlier on another thread:
Question:
With all this huge release of radiation, ongoing and globally spread,
are not dosimeters and radiation detectors, Geiger or otherwise,
going to now need complete recalibration, and even re-design of
the sensitive design elements, the metallurgy involved?
There was a rumor-story about nuke plants sneakily using a crisis
of increased atmospheric Rad as a means to illegally release their
own troiublesome nuke-fart-gases to clear their stacks or whatever.

makes a lot of sense japan has proven that you do not need any numeric max release levels..
it’s all just confusing numbers anyway the sun was great today,pretty girls in the street all is well in the world.

New England here… The rain looked mighty strange today.. more like a solid than a liquid; imagine tiny hail, so small it floats on air currents.
Just an observation, no more.

I was out too long yesterday…not the best plume day, I guess, but otherwise good air quality and allergens haven’t bothered me for years. I felt fine until after an hour outdoors. Then tissues in my throat and nose were strangely burning a bit–a “what the hell is this?!” signal from my body. yes, it IS ON..on the EAST Coast, too! (gargling & wiping out nostrils with filtered water & baking soda provided relief) I’ve noticed that not as many people are getting out and enjoying the spring days…

I went out for a walk today too. Amazingly it is the first day that we have not been chemtrailed in months. The sky was glorious! But, back to the walk…my throat got really dry fast. I thought maybe it was all the aluminum settling down to earth.

I tend to agree with the high RAD levels in the air shutting down the Nukes. But the ones I am familial with (2) would just keep churning away
unless operators would SCRAM the plant operations. I do not think EPA is giving us all the real data. This is an unknown.

Or it could be stuff like this::
CNN) — The Nuclear Regulatory Commission will investigate an incident at a Nebraska nuclear plant in which three workers were accidentally exposed to radiation, it said in a statement Monday.
The incident occurred April 3, when workers at the Cooper Nuclear Station near Brownville, Nebraska, “removed a long tube contaminated with highly radioactive material through the bottom of the reactor vessel, rather than through the top as is usually done, triggering radiation alarms.” The workers put down the tube and immediately left the area, the statement said.

i must admit when the report came out weeks ago,stating that if obl was captured or killed a nuclear hellstorm would happen.
i thought it was odd as obl had not been seen in a video for 6 years…the odd taped message coming out at good time for bush or obama.
now it all makes sense..japan nuke meltdown birth certificate problems..dollar meltdown..us economy in freefall,couple days later we got him.
today on the dumb bbc terror alert head of scotland yard saying a terror event will happen.
my guess a dirty little nuke to cover the japan nightmare…al-Qaeda take the blame quickly syria and iran are implicated…
who knows with what implications..
what should be known is the usa is in so much debt to china..and others that another war is needed.and how handy we have cia trained arabs to put the blame on.

Some here mention the increased happenings of earth-quakes. If you really want to get a good look at just how many earth quakes are happening around the planet (almost real time).. Download Google Earth (GE), & install it. Then go to google earth gallery & install Real-Time Earth Quakes. I’m not talking about the one that comes installed with GE. You have to go here

and get the KLM file, & open it in GE. I think you’ll be shocked.

re nine mile – the SCRAM was traced to a single bad speed sensor for turbine RPM – non redundant- and there was a maintenance crew actively working on the feedwater problem that took them under 50% at the time. possible indirect human error.
