[edit] Cleanup

This write up is so poor, that I think it should be discarded entirely and a new one written. There are numerous factual and grammatical errors throughout. jmsiiJmsii 21:49, 14 February 2007 (UTC)

Lots of work since then... the article now looks reasonable to me. Are we getting close to removing the cleanup tag? Andrewa 18:13, 17 May 2007 (UTC)
I agree, it's still start-class, but it doesn't need the tag anymore. Next time I stop by I'll take it off (feel free to do it yourself). Last chance for objections. Alfredo22 03:55, 7 September 2007 (UTC)
Ugh, is the new cut and paste from the NRC web page really an improvement (Sept 13 edit)? It's a lot longer may be too technical. I may revert it. I don't think it was the solution to our citation problems. Alfredo22 04:22, 17 September 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Fermi 3

On DTE Energy's main website's news does speak of DTE possibly building an additional reactor. The final desicison has not been made, but the NRC has given them the ability to make this new reactor. —The preceding unsigned comment was added by 67.38.3.94 (talk) 00:08, 23 March 2007 (UTC).


Someone posted the below in the article. I moved it here for consideration:

The second cooling tower was NOT for the original Fermi 3. The design of the Fermi 2 Main Condenser requires 2 cooling towers due to it's higher designed flow. A former Fermi Senior Reactor Operator.

[edit] We Almost Lost Detroit

This book is not a fiction book, regardless of how to owners would like it classified. The libary of congress lists it in 621 of the Dewey Decimal system as "Applied Physics" —Preceding unsigned comment added by Jessicabreckenridge (talk • contribs) 03:20, 19 October 2007 (UTC)

Despite how the Library of Congress has this book classified it is a book of fiction, the purported facts of the book are not verifiable. FOIA requests to the Monroe County Sherriff's Department and the Michigan State Police do not find any record of the calls the book claims were made to central dispatch of Monroe County. All calls into the emergency center are routinely logged for legal reasons, yet the calls are not in the record.

Secondly the book was refuted by engineers who worked at the plant at the time of the incident in a paper entitled clearly "We Did Not Almost Lose Detroit!" by Earl Page referred to @ http://local.ans.org/mi/bios/page_earl.htm Energy Citations Database also has reference to this work @ http://www.osti.gov/energycitations/product.biblio.jsp?osti_id=7353715 but the paper is not available in electronic format. I have personally viewed and held a copy which is kept in the reference center of the Monroe County Library System.

Third while attempting to copy the edit above to dispute it I accidentally deleted the paragraph, someone needs to bring it back so it can be properly disputed and reviewed.
