Entergy now testing below minimum level of detectable credibility

Well now we know how Entergy will try and spin it . In his rushed pushback against the Vermont Department of Health’s announcement that radioactive tritium leaking from VY has reached the Connecticut River, Entergy Vermont Yankee spokes-flack Larry Smith makes a claim that dips below the level of detectable credibility.

Smith maintains that Entergy’s tests are showing tritium levels below the minimum detectable level. He fails to explain how Entergy labs perform this miraculous feat of science.

But New Orleans-based Entergy Corp. issued a statement, saying its testing of the same July 18 and July 25 samples showed levels of tritium below the minimum detectable amount.

"Results from our laboratory testing of those same samples … show levels that are below that same extreme lower limit," Vermont Yankee spokesman Larry Smith said.

Smith said he could not explain how the company was able to detect tritium at levels below the "minimum detectible." He said Entergy wants an independent third party to analyze both sets of test results to resolve the discrepancy

  1. …emissions from Larry Smith’s office may contain detectable levels of toxins, but they pose absolutely no threat to public health or safety.

  2. are the best in the business – lies, half-truths, minimize, misrepresent, “mis-speak”, act confused, act dumb, drool – and make sure you do it all on Friday after the markets close and the papers have gone to bed.

    Obfuscate and play the victim.   This is the essence of the modern corporate PR department.  You are well paid to lie and confuse and act put upon.

    Looks like Nuclear is the new Tobacco.  Entergy will drag this out for decades.
