HAZMAT Team Called To Lingan Power Plant
A major hydrogen leak is being reported this afternoon at the Lingan Power Generating Station outside of New Waterford. A HAZMAT Team is at the site but unconfirmed reports say Nova Scotia Power is handling the problem on-site and apparently there is no danger to the surrounding areas although police have cordoned off streets in a two to three kilometre radius of the plant. There are no reports of any residents being evacuated at this time. We’re following this story as develops.
