The Sequoyah nuclear power plant is located on 525 acres (2.1 km²) near Chattanooga, Tennessee.
This plant has two Westinghouse pressurized water reactors.
Within months of starting operations, some 420,000 litres of radioactive coolant leaked due to operator error and several workers were exposed to radiation, but the spill was kept inside the containment building.
