[ RadSafe ] Slovenia: Leak in cooling system of NPP

[Steven Dapra]

         From the Yahoo article:

But Jan Beranek, Greenpeace International's nuclear campaigner, said: "Any 
situation which results in the European Commission alerting all 27 member 
states about the possible consequences of a nuclear accident cannot readily 
be dismissed as something not to worry about.

"In this case we hope that independent confirmation can be gained to 
confirm that the situation is under control and there was no offsite 
contamination.

"However, it stands as a testament to the threat that all of Europe's 
nuclear facilities pose to its population and environment and beyond. Those 
who are planning to build more nuclear reactors must heed this warning and 
reject nuclear technology."

(end quote)

         My additional comment is that this sounds like a made-to-order 
opportunity for Greenpeace to deliver another one of its hackneyed 
anti-nuclear campaign speeches.
