Chris Stone's lighting design is tremendous, as usual. This is the way the Loeb should be used, at least for sets...
...plant's construction design made the project vulnerable to controversy from the start because the power company planned to cool its twin 1,150-megawatt nuclear reactors by drawing sea water from three miles offshore through a 19-ft.-diameter tunnel, and returning the water, 39° F. hotter, to the ocean. The issue was supposed to have been settled in 1974, when the Environmental Protection Agency required that all new nuclear plants use concrete cooling towers, which dissipate the heat through evaporation and may cost more than $60 million...
...plant will be to stop. Meanwhile, company lawyers sought a permanent exemption from the cooling-tower requirement. This involved nine months of public hearings and deliberation by the EPA'S Boston regional office. Finally, in November 1976, EPA Regional Administrator John McGlennon ruled that the ocean tunnel design was a potential environmental danger.
