Reassessing 'what if' factor at state's nuclear power plants





"PG&E is planning to spend $500,000 in a new effort to assess how two worst-case scenarios for tsunamis -- the 'apocalyptic model' and the 'decades-of-terror model,' as the utility's top geoscientist, Lloyd Cluff, calls them -- would affect the Diablo Canyon nuclear plant near San Luis Obispo and the decommissioned Humboldt Bay nuclear plant near Eureka."

They're even calling it the "apocalyptic" model . . .
