Nuclear Tornadoes map created for BEST/MATRR, April 2011
We created this map
of the 50 mile zones surrounding
TVA nuclear power plants
superimposed on a NOAA track of
Category EF-4 and EF-5 Tornadoes
that ripped past 6 nuclear reactors
and over six million pounds
of highly radioactive
spent fuel in cooling pools
in the Tennessee Valley
on April 27, 2011.
BEST/MATRR members regularly call for higher standards
and greater vigilance regarding nuclear power safety
at TVA board meetings and NRC hearings.
