The Herald reports:
Why bother with experts when you have executives in charge? Anyhow, the article goes on to say that employees are not allowed to publicly talk about the company. They do have an internal policy to deal with employee concerns and the Herald helpfully quotes an employee about it, "'Most are afraid of coming forward,' said Mike Kohl, a nuclear operator at Turkey Point."At 1:09 one afternoon last year, 90 metal rods slid into the cores of the two nuclear reactors at Turkey Point, part of an automatic shutdown that had been triggered by a utility worker's blunder moments earlier at a substation miles away. A million customers lost power.
Florida Power & Light executives ordered that the reactors be back online within 12 hours, according to court documents. The plant's top nuclear operator, David Hoffman, said that would be dangerous. When FPL executives disagreed with him, he walked out at 8 p.m., refusing to participate in actions he felt were unsafe.
