Question
In the assigned reading, look for the highlighted phrase "return to the chimney stack and take a
fresh set of air samples."
At this point, Robinson and his boss think there has been a malfunction at Forsmark and that
nuclear fuel from within the core reactor - which should never be allowed to escape and be
exposed to the environment - may be leaking from the power plant, possibly from the chimney
stack.
