Diablo Canyon: ASTONISHING NUCLEAR SAFETY "Concerns"

Dr. Sam Blakeslee, a Phd. geophysicist, former Republican California state senator, and former commissioner, California Seismic Safety Commission is advocating an immediate seismic safety investigation of PG&E's Diablo Canyon nuclear plant near San Luis Obispo, CA. In Dec. 3, 2014 testimony before Senator Barbara Boxer's Committee on Environment and Public Works, Blakeslee - who is emphatically NOT 'anti-nuclear' - denounced the fact that as new discoveries of potential earthquake dangers have increased, PG&E's standards for seismic safety have gone down. It is now known that Diablo sits atop 13 intersecting active earthquake faults in a tsunami zone similar to Fukushima. The plant was not designed to withstand the level of shaking this network of active faults is capable of delivering. A Senior NRC Inspector has called for the plant's shutdown for being out of compliance with seismic safety standards. Yet, PG&E is pushing to extend the plant's operating license without retro-fitting or safety assessment. Sen. Blakeslee is calling for an immediate NRC re-licensing hearing. original upload here called Republican Calls for Diablo Safety Probe : http://bit.ly/1zomn3j SD-406 Diablo Canyon Nulcear SAFETY Probe after "Lessons Learned from Fukushima" Around 2:30 minutes...
