Nuclear Power Activity

PART ONE QUESTIONS

1) The eastern part of the United States is in a potentioally dangerous area, as is almost all of Europe and Southern East Asia. (Japan)

2) Thia map tells where it is safe to put plants, however since Japan is so small, plant designers probably put plants wherever they could..  This would affect the crisis in Japan because since there are dangerous nuclear areas, it would affect the amount of agriculture produced.

PART TWO QUESTIONS

3) One of the more important issues is fire protection problems.  Thia problem is thte most dangerous because it is the most life threatening and the second mot common safety issue among nuclear reactors.  One reactor is Browns Ferry Unit 1 Reactor in Decatur, Alabama.

4)  The Eureka California Reactor, The Clay Station California Reactor, The Avila Beach California Reactors, the San Clemente California Reactors, and the Wintersberg Arizona Reactors are dangerously close to an earthquake epicenter.  I think these reactors should be shut down because if an earthquake were to happen, then these reactors would cause a crisis close to what happened in japan. I think the Avila Beach California Reactor is in the most danger because it is right on the coast of California.
