“In a worst-case scenario, all reactors


within an affected region could

be impacted simultaneously. In the

United States, this would risk meltdowns

at approximately 60 sites

and 99 nuclear reactors, with more

than 60,000 metric tons of spent

nuclear fuel in storage pools

= Game over





That right there is the main reason I posted the link.

This was the first government report that mentioned what they think will happen to the reactors. They basically admit they expect them all to melt down. This is stunning. If people ignore the risk of an EMP and blow it off as nonsense they are only kidding themselves.

Just from memory folk ... Could be wrong. I have several books on the subject and one on surviving a nuke attack.
I believe it said If a reactor got damaged the danger zone would be for us in western NY would be down to Mount Morris from the Ontario plant.... Depending on the wind drift.... My thoughts ... Have read that most plants have enough fuel to keep the pumps running for a week.... So go in and have stand alone hardened diesel pumps and generators in faraday cages not connected to any grid with a years supply of diesel fuel. on hand. ... Then try to find the folks to run them ... Keep everything running... The stress level alone can see folks cracking ....
One has to have the will to work on this EMP problem. I understand Trump wanted a report and study on the EMP issue and maybe this posted above is it. ... Trouble with this country ... All one will hear about is impeach 45 for the next few years ... and Trumps tax returns. ... My opinion ... I believe Trump could solve this issue of having the reactors cool at least for a year... He is a builder and understands construction. .. Problem is few liberals even are aware of the problem. Their agenda is to destroy Trump and his family ...Rinos too with Mittens leading the charge

The military has known about EMP threats for a long long time. Everything designed for the military has to be EMP hardened. Even mil vehicles from Vietnam are EMP hardened. That was a deciding factor when I bought my M1008 and when I bought my new General Dynamics laptop. I'll be looking for mil radio equipment in a while.
They can easily retrofit back up generators at the nuke plants to get them shut down safely and keep them cool. Stockpile enough diesel fuel to last long enough. Diesel fuel doesn't go bad.
