Exelon Braidwood Nuclear Facility
While working with the Exelon Dresden nuclear power plant in the fall of 2004,
where tritium was detected in some on-site wells, Illinois EPA became aware
of the potential for tritium contamination in groundwater at this type of
facility. At the same time, the Agency was involved in the pending renewal
of the industrial discharge permit for the Braidwood facility. Comments received
from the Godley Park District alerted Illinois EPA to tritium detected in
a shallow sand point well at the Park District.
