Compare this to what TVA does around nuclear power plants (sirens,

signs 

for evacuation routes, instructions), which are not an acute hazard if 

they fail, especially compared to a dam break.



I've come to the conclusion that TVA has its priorities screwed up. <





No Susan, TVA is simply doing what is required of them to do by the

regulatory agencies covering the two types of activity.  I would say

the regulators of the dam stations have *their* priorities screwed up. 





My observations only.
