NHC Forecast: 11:00 PM EDT Sun October 28, 2012

Oyster Creek Nuclear Generating Station is located near New Jersey’s shoreline in an area forecast to take a direct hit from Hurricane Sandy: “The current ‘track center’ for the landfall path is central New Jersey pointing Sandy in a path that would hit Oyster Creek nuclear station.” -SimplyInfo

A: Oyster Creek

Some news reports appear to discount the threat to Oyster Creek because the reactor is shut down for refueling.

Nuclear expert Arnie Gundersen said in a recent podcast that the fuel pools — not just the reactors themselves — are at risk from Hurricane Sandy: Gundersen: If power lost, only plan is to let spent fuel pools heat up… no generators to pump in water (AUDIO)

With Oyster Creek shut down for refueling starting last week, hot fuel may have been placed in the fuel pool quite recently.

The unit at Oyster Creek is the same as [Disallowed String for - Bad word 'fuk']ushima Daiichi No. 1: “Oyster Creek is one of the oldest US nuclear plants and is the same design as [Disallowed String for - Bad word 'fuk']ushima unit 1.” -SimplyInfo
