During the closure a fire broke out in some graphite filters but was eventually put out by 12 fire crews and site fire workers. 3. In February this year Sizewell B was forced to shut again due to another problem with its primary cooling system

Dario Malewa , 03-03-2011 - 12:28
Africans ‘left out’ in Libya evacuations .......
