Talk:Oyster Creek Nuclear Generating Station

message: I question that reference, as the PDF it links to comes from the operating company and is hosted on a website dedicated to the site itself. IE. I doubt its neutrality. 68.39.174.238 00:43, 19 April 2007 (UTC)

message: Subject says it all.  
These paragraphs are a little strange: from "New Jersey..." to "...performance" it sounds like a press release.  Needs citations and changes in format to reflect Wikipedia guidelines.
: I see nothing new here since June last year.  Unless another editor objects, I will remove the neutrality dispute tag.  FellGleaming (talk) 23:29, 5 April 2010 (UTC)
thread_title:   Environment Section sounds a bit too much like PR

Much of this article reads as it was written by the owners.  Propaganda, not factual information.
For example:  "Until Oyster Creek can be replaced with in-kind new nuclear generation, its continued operation is critical to achieving New Jersey's greenhouse gas emissions reduction objectives."  Misleading:  continued operation of a nuclear plant will not reduce greenhouse gas emissions, since the plant has been operating since the 1960's.
For example:  "As a part of Exelon Corporation, Oyster Creek follows the corporation's clear environmental policy. It is the company's commitment to constantly improve its environmental performance ..."  Misleading:  The plant causes huge losses of marine life because of the "once through" cooling system.
For example:  "The plant emits none of the EPA-defined criteria pollutants (including ozone, nitrogen dioxide, sulfur dioxide, carbon monoxide, particulate, and lead) as well as zero mercury (emitted by coal fired power plants)."  Not true, just the Diesel generators at the site have substantial emissions.  Aside from that, there is no mention of the radioactive emissions.
This is one of the most biased Wikipedia articles I've seen.

: You cite no evidence or sources for any of your claims, and most of them hold no weight whatsoever.  For instance, are you actually claiming that backup diesel generators on site emit non-negligible amounts of air pollution?  These generators don't provide hundreds of megawatts like an actual power plant, but rather a few tens of kilowatts to run backup systems.  Furthermore, they don't run constantly, but only during an emergency.  Their air quality footprint is essentially zero.  Even more off target is the belief that operating the plant does not reduce CO2 emissions.  If the plant were to shut down, its power would need to be replaced by some alternative which does produce CO2.  This is a rather basic point.  FellGleaming (talk) 19:56, 3 April 2010 (UTC)

: Radioactive water that leaked from the nation's oldest nuclear power plant has now reached a major underground aquifer that supplies drinking water to much of southern New Jersey, the state's environmental chief said Friday.

thread_title: Tainted nuke plant water reaches major NJ aquifer

message: This article is so sad it makes me laugh again. Homer and Burns come to mind. It is just another episode of this feeling that USamericans live in a totally different world but sadly still on and off the same planet. It is also another testament to the failure of NPOV watch mechanisms on english language WP. Rigorous cleanup of this white- and greenwashing please. --Echosmoke (talk) 03:05, 16 March 2011 (UTC)

Almost unbelievable ... but imo worth mentioning in the article. I'm no native speaker; therefore I hope that someone takes pity on that information ... -- (talk) 13:18, 7 April 2011 (UTC)
thread_title:  NRC: "Japan is no reason to de-license Oyster Creek" 

message: There is a mention in the article that the plant operator will close it down ten years before its license expires and no cooling towers will need to be built. What does this mean? Nothing else about this is written in the article! Q43 (talk) 00:22, 29 August 2011 (UTC)
