Sun on California coast: Shut down Diablo Canyon Nuclear plant in Calif. with LICENSING?, Nukes could ruin California FOREVER, Grow solar hugely

Shut down Diablo Canyon Nuclear plant with licensing?

"PG&E delays licensing to study Diablo Canyon fault"

It's probably ILLEGAL because it can't withstand a 9.0 earthquake, post Fukushima (it was designed for a 6.75, then retrofitted against 7.5 - see WUaS Nuclear Science subject:
http://worlduniversity.wikia.com/wiki/Nuclear_Science_and_Engineering,

and Wikipedia on Diablo Canyon Nuclear plant:
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Diablo_Canyon_Power_Plant).

While both Diablo Canyon and San Onofre Nuclear plants are in earthquake zones, Diablo itself is right on an earthquake fault. (And they aren't closed already?)

Diable Canyon Nuclear plant could ruin California FOREVER.
