Yesterday this blog reported a possible fire on August 23rd at Vogtle Nuclear Power Station, as seen on the USDA Forestry web site. No “event” has been reported yet by the US NRC, nor by the media. This does not mean that nothing happened, however. It could have happened and be reported later, or not at all. What other “events” have occurred at Vogtle that could look similar to the possible fire on Tuesday?

NASA location, which is the same as given on the USDA site. Links in yesterday’s post: https://miningawareness.wordpress.com/2016/08/24/possible-fire-at-vogtle-nuclear-power-station-on-the-savannah-river-in-georgia-usa-23-aug-2016/
