Jun 25, 2022 - Inside the Decommissioning of San Onofre Nuclear Power Station
In this video I visit the San Onofre Nuclear Generating Station or SONGS for short. I was given pretty awesome access to parts of the facility after reaching out to John Dobken the Public Information Officer for SONGS. I was extremely curious as to what went into decommissioning a site like this and how radioactive some of the areas were still. The radiation levels were very low even right next to the nuclear reactor containment building. Even if the reactor was running similar low readings would have been seen. SONGS was permanently retired in 2013.
