The Challenge of Finding the Right Valve Underwater
Divers, clad in standard wetsuits, raced through water to reach crucial valves, aiming to prevent disaster. A firefighter’s effort to siphon radioactive water turned swimming into wading, boosting chances of success in this critical operation.

In the power plant’s basement, engineers navigated a maze of pipes and wires in knee-high, radioactive water to locate essential valves. Their familiarity with the layout led them to the correct valve by tracing a pipe to its source.
