Fire at Vt. nuclear plant office called suspicious (well Entergy is saying it's suspicious)
September 20, 2011 11:53 AM




(AP) BRATTLEBORO, Vt. — Police and fire investigators remain at the scene of a fire at the corporate offices of the Vermont Yankee nuclear power plant in Brattleboro.

But there's been no ruling on the cause of the Tuesday morning fire that company spokesman Larry Smith called suspicious.

The plant's owners and the state of Vermont have been engaged in a bruising fight over whether it should be allowed to operate beyond March. The company has sued to keep it running.

The two-story building includes a basement with testing laboratories. It houses the plant's communication equipment and its public and government relations offices. The reactor itself is about 7 miles south, in the town of Vernon.

No one was injured, but the building is unusable.
