Stalburg: Difference between revisions

On August the 8th 2016, due to years of neglected maintenance, parts of the Bergmann fresh water tunnel system finally collapsed, in turn causing significant damage and flooding to various subterranean structures. Due to the blockage of the tunnels, an unusually high amount of pressure was put on the already derelict Two Gorges Dam, and around 20:00 the dam failed catastrophically. The resulting flood forced the evacuation of Stalburg, and ended up submerging various sites within the river valley including parts of the city itself, as well as causing major flooding at the nearby [[npp|Blackrock Nuclear Power Plant]]. Around 22:00, the city's power supply failed completely as a result of the flooding causing blackout of whole city. The severe flooding in the Blackrock Nuclear Power Plant broke the remote control of the first reactor, thus the reactor had to be shut down manually by [[Markku Siltanen]]. Thanks to Mark's heroism, a nuclear meltdown was prevented, saving hundreds of thousands of people.
