Red Wing Incinerator is BURNING!!!
June 7th, 2017
So I see this notice, and run downstairs, “Alan, we’ve got to move!” and we hustled over to the “Solid Waste Campus,” and at the Bench Street intersection, waiting for the light, a fire truck comes roaring up, I quick take a left and scoot over to the right to let them through, it’s Lake City. Yeah, this must be some “active emergency fire situation.” And sure enough, I pulled over, got out, and got a few shots until I was shooed away. This is what we first saw, just as the sun was setting, about 9:15 p.m.:
KTTC from Rochester was there too, and here’s their report:

Ft. Calhoun nuclear plant flood and fire
June 8th, 2011
Remember the flooding info and maps I’d posted a couple of days ago, noting that two nuclear plants in Nebraska were in the flood inundation area?
Well, Frieda Berryhill sent this photo of the flooding at the Ft. Calhoun nuclear plant:
Check the video, Omaha Public Power District – OPPD didn’t want the news crew filming the flooding!!! And thankfully, they reported that point:
As if the flooding isn’t enough, they had an electrical fire, and shut down the spent fuel pond pumps to aid in fighting it. There are many articles posted on this, all the IDENTICAL AP article, and not one mention of flooding:
Here’s a local paper with some additional details:

FIRE! ACE’s Orchard substation is on fire!
December 14th, 2009
“HOT” off the press from Stop the Poles! The Atlantic City Electric substation in southern New Jersy went up in flames today.
And as to the article below, keep in mind that this is one big honkin’ substation — “distribution” — I don’t think so…
How does a substation burn?!?!?!?!?! Apparently it’s the plastic wall around it that’s on fire, the “sound” wall, but how could that be? How could that burn? And I’ve heard that emergency crews can’t get near it,they’re on the scene, but aren’t allowed to get close. That’s them banded together to the left of the line, and that’s the substation on the left. Must be pretty intense toxic emissions?!?!?!
Here’s another photo:
