This has got the be the biggest case of Nothing to see Here, Move along Ive ever seen. Employees with full unescorted access to a US Nuclear Plant up on Terrorism charges. Did I mention this isnt bullshit conspiracy crap but direct from the NRC.gov itself? NRC Issues Orders to Dresden Nuclear Plant and Former Plant Employees The Nuclear Regulatory Commission staff has issued a confirmatory order to Exelon Generation Company, LLC for one incident involving violations of the Behavioral Observation Program at the Dresden Nuclear Power Station. In addition, the NRC issued orders prohibiting two former Dresden employees involved in the situation from participating in nuclear work regulated by the NRC. Dresden is located in Morris, Ill., 25 miles southwest of Joliet. The NRC investigated the incident in which senior reactor operator Michael J. Buhrman, planned to rob an armored car and recruited the assistance of another senior reactor operator, Landon E. Brittain. The plan was not carried out. However, Buhrman was apprehended for aggravated vehicular carjacking and fled the country after being released on bail. He was tried and sentenced in absentia. Brittain has a number of criminal charges pending against him. The NRC concluded that Buhrman’s and Brittain’s actions while offsite demonstrated they could not be relied upon to adhere to NRC requirements to protect plant and public safety. In addition, Dresden personnel who knew about Buhrman’s plan to commit an offsite crime failed to report the situation to plant management, which is an NRC requirement for workers who have unescorted access to the plant. nrc.gov/reading-rm/doc-collections/news/2013/13-039.iii.pdf
