The Crystal River plant is looking at 3 Billion in repairs just to get it up and running again..
I grew up in the shadow of FPL's Turkey Point and spent most of my boating time launching adjacent to it. It's going through a series of upgrades including installation of a massive transformer to increase capacity. This created a large number of jobs for qualified, trained tradesmen but FPL has been forced to bring in oversees workers to handle a share of these tasks. Talking welders, pipe fitters, boilermakers, electricians etc. because they couldn't find enough qualified trades to perform these needed jobs. I would imagine that will be the case at CR.
Love them or hate them, trade unions finest work was in training. There's a boxcar load of engineers out of work up here and it's a good bet they can't weld a lick.
At least the one I know can't.
