Radioactive Waste 367 - Southern California Edison And Holtec International Are Using Inadequate Dry Casks To Store Spent Nuclear Fuel From The San Onofre Nuclear Generating Station
I have blogged about the San Onofre Generating Station near San Diego before. This plant is owned and was operated by the Southern California Edison (SCE) utility. The plant was shut down in 2013 after replacement steam generators failed. SCE redesigned the replacement generators but were told by the manufacturer that the new designs might not work correctly.
