More fish problems
The state denies Entergy a water permit on the grounds that an outmoded cooling system kills so many fish and consumes and contaminates so much water that it violates the federal Clean Water Act. In a reversal of the plant’s previous fish issues, this one involves the cooling system sucking in millions of fish and their eggs. Entergy claims it would cost $1.1 billion and a complete 42-week shutdown of the plant to replace the system.
