Last year one of the nuclear plants in had a spill so bad the factory had to be closed for 7 months. Unfortunately we will never known which factory it was. The public has been barred from this knowledge as the information has been given the security level just under “secret” which keeps it out of public hands. Many say this is unjust as the public deserves to know.
