In the article, "Three Mile Island 29 Years Later: Nuclear Safety Problems Still Unresolved", I think that it gives enough background information to inform readers of the overall incident. It also points out the huge issue at hand, "Why has the Nuclear industry and the NRC not focused on creating higher safety standards for the industry. It is not as cut and dry as "there are only accidents in a new and an old facility". This is not true. If there are not strick enough regulations in place then the opportunity for failure is higher. I think there should have been a little more information on what safety procedures and regulations are in place now and what the NRC plans on doing to ensure the safety of employees as well as the general public within the possible exposure areas of the facilities and include the public when creating an emergency plan so that they are aware of their risks and if something does happen then they will no be so alarmed.
