On Saturday morning, while Prairie State was taking Unit 2 offline for a scheduled maintenance outage, a water storage tank overflowed resulting in an unexpectedly high release of steam and water that damaged the siding and associated equipment. The company says all of the employees and workers on site are safe. Prairie State says no explosion, fire or injuries occurred, but a disaster preparedness blog cited in the St. Louis Post Dispatch is showing pictures and challenging Prairie States claim that at least some type of an explosion didnt happen. The photo shows a large amount of damage to a wall in Unit 2.
