Asleep on the Job
Submitted by Melinda Secor on Thu, 2007-10-11 16:00
"This March, an anonymous whistle-blower sent a letter to the Nuclear Regulatory Commission, warning that guards at the Peach Bottom nuclear power plant in Pennsylvania were routinely sleeping on the job. The letter writer said he was writing on behalf of other guards who were tired of covering up for their colleagues. He begged the NRC to do something and even suggested five ways to catch the sleepers, who are supposed to be on constant alert to repel terrorist attacks."
