Geology 101

Guess the nuk-spurts didn't have that as a prerequisite course, huh.

You'd be amazed at the number of power plants built on faults (North Anna in VA, for instance), or on an actively eroding coastline (Lusby, MD). There are others, and though people were told....they just don't listen.

That's where I discovered most 'hearings' are just a formality, the decision has been made and the hearing is just so they can say the hearing was xx hours long and yy people testified, and that they are going to do what they wanted to do anyway.

Most plants can be sited to avoid such hazards, it is just more expensive to do so.
