What would happen if there were an emergency or radiation release at the new site?
Safety and security are priorities for Progress Energy’s existing nuclear sites and will be a high priority at the Levy County site if the decision is made to build a plant there. Emergency planning is a critical part of the comprehensive safety plan. At Progress Energy’s existing plants, teams of employees focus on emergency planning year-round and work closely with state and local officials to ensure plans are current, realistic and protective of the public.
