Re: Fuel rod drop incident at Chapelcross station: any infor

[keith.mckay@PS.GLASGOW.GOV.UK (Keith McKay)]

     Dear Patrick

     

     If you seach Google for a newspaper called the Sunday Herald and go to 

     its web page you will find a report on the incident. I would assume 

     that most of the UK newspapers (Guardian, Times, Telegraph, Glasgow 

     Herald etc) will be reporting the incident today and have something on 

     their web pages as well.  You could also try the SEPA (Scottish 

     Environmental Protection) and NII (Nuclear Installations Inspectorate) 

     web sites

     

     As far as I understand 25 fuel rods fell 2.5 feet within the 

     refuelling machine and their was no release of radioactivity

     

     Best wishes
