The Palisades Nuclear Power Plant near South Haven has one of the worst safety records in the country.  It’s been shut down to repair a leaky water tank.  A group of special federal investigators has just launched an investigation into that leaking tank.  It turns out the company that runs the plant knew the leak was happening for more than a year.  That’s on the next Environment Report.

Nuclear power plant leakage is one of the most dangerous water leakage. It can cause radiation which is very harmful for any living creature. so we need to be very careful while designing such kind of plants. water leakage detection system should be used in such plants must be very advanced and effective.
