'asked in the Electric Utilities and Y2K Q&A Forum
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

As a worker at a nuclear plant I am aware of the potential problems that we are being faced with now and in the future. If we start losing the Nukes because of Y2K noncompliance as a result of N.R.C. directives...can we reasonably expect martial law to soon follow ? If it does ..what will that mean to the average nuclear plant worker ? It seems to me that if the plants are taken off line that they will be required to unload fuel..a time consuming process. What about the plants , such as ours that have a very limited storage space for fuel rods? We are already using temporary storage casks for them, Im not sure that we have enough on site to unload 2 800+ megawatt reactors.
