These are the storage pools to take the overflow from the main cooling pool inside the reactor building itself, added because Fort Calhoun, like so many other power stations, is simply allowing the spent fuel rods to pile up. According to one expert these additional storage units are outside the aqua dam and berm. With two feet of flood water racing past the spent rod storage facility that means we already have the potential for radioactive co
