Control rod failures force shutdown of New York nuclear power plant –Entergy 'not yet clear' on what caused problem | 08 Dec 2015 | One of the Indian Point nuclear power plant's reactors was shut down over the weekend after several control rods lost power, the plant owner said, marking the latest in a series of mishaps at the suburban New York nuclear plant this year. Control room operators shut down the Indian Point 2 reactor around 5:30 p.m. on Dec. 5, owner Entergy Corp. said in a statement, adding the reactor did what it's intended to do if control rods lose electricity. Entergy reported no radiation was released into the environment, said Gov. Andrew Cuomo, who has complained that there have been too many problems at Indian Point and has called for closing down the plant. [I wouldn't believe anything Entergy said if its tongue came notarized.]
