A long time ago, I wrote endless blog posts about a huge earthquake zone activated by fluid injection about a mile deep. It was obvious to me they were activating a heck of a huge fault zone, and playing with starting an M7-8 earthquake, like New Madrid.
Now, this nuclear plant is a mile deep under an open head of water. I'm so glad they have looked closely at this issue, and dismissed the injected earthquake threat.
I've said before, for the Bruce Nuclear Waste Site, that it was the worst place in the world. It was cancelled and moved to a place I know nothing about. I can't say this is the worst place in the world for an underground nuclear plant.
I'm thinking that with all the earthquakes that happened here, that it is the cheapest land they could buy.
ps. I have written a lot of stuff about underground things and earthquakes. In general, it's the safest thing in the world. But not right on top! A long pencil-thin thing runs the risk of being sheared, just like my dock at the cottage in the winter. Shear this nuclear sucker and the open head blows right out, like a geyser of doom. They can pay me a lot of money to say exactly the same thing, but I have no gravitas, and am never believed.
ps I'm not following this any more. It will take care of itself, as they drill deeper. This is trumpy country and nobody could talk to them. All the previous data from the injections was kept secret, and anything from this will be the same.
