Nuke ship runs aground at Swedish nuclear power plant
A vessel used to move nuclear waste ran aground this morning by a decommissioned nuclear plant in southern Sweden.
The Swedish Maritime Administration said the vessel, Sigrid, has no dangerous cargo aboard and was on its way into the harbor outside the now-decommissioned Barseback nuclear plant.
There were no reports of leakages from the ship, nor had the hull been damaged. The ship is run by Furetank, a local Swedish owner.
The power plant’s two reactors were closed more than a decade ago with all radioactive substances already removed.
“Nuke ship….”, is this article copied from the tabloid press? I expect more professionalism in the reporting on this site rather than alarmist and attention seeking headlines.
