With news continuing to leak (pardon me) out about Japan’s nuclear power complex, Dominion Power is getting questions about plans to expand their Lake Anna Facility.
Dominion says plans unchanged for reactor license
Richmond Times Dispatch
Dominion Virginia Power said Monday that it intends to move forward with plans for a third reactor at its North Anna Power Station as the international nuclear energy industry reels from the disaster at the Dai-ichi nuclear plant in Japan.
Lake Anna is not a likely target for a tsunami. In fact if a tsunami big enough to get that far inland hits the Virginia coast, nuclear power may be the least of our worries.
Still, there’s nothing wrong with proceeding with caution.
