    We were just told last nite at work that some 34 gas turbines that are used at the tepco nuclear site and power and water are being shipped back here to greenville for repair.
    The Tepco site was one of our largest contracts for 9fa and 7fa gas turbines.

    I think they also updated the status to level 5 of a possible 7.

    Some may be steam. But the majority are 9F duel fuel gas turbines.
    We have been building gas turbines for tepco for the past few years.
    As a matter of fact, they have been our biggest orders since 2007.

    I call Bull sh!t on this one also that would all depend on wind curent and the explossion if it where to occur this map is saying that 1/3 of the US will be affected but most of japan would not look at japan in the map its home free no collors exept for maybe that city, i guess payback is a B!tch after all the plant is named Fuk,u
    still the map is BS and in no way acurate, just common sence theres no way that British columbia 3 thousand miles away will be entirely affected while japan where the plant is located will be free of radiation.

    Agreed, as far as all the sources I've found said, they've pretty much solved the nuclear crisis, everything now is just clean up.

    Oh well, because of this whole thing. We re-routed our vacation from Japan to SWEDEN!!!
