Well, it's like the news gods have answered my prayer.
I can hardly believe it, but the World Herald printed a fantastic article telling us the elevations of all the crucial electrical power and the height to which the switchyard, the backup diesels, the reactor, and the spent fuel pool cooling systems are protected to.
The article also gave a play-by-play of the aquaberm popping incident. It said the workers thought-fast and cut power to the transformers before the water hit them and shorted them out.
In short, read the article, I will do another post with a breakdown of elevations, but here it is, thanks Nancy Gaarder and Sam Womak at the World Herald for writing the most informative article yet on the Fort Calhoun Plant:
