Entergy Declares A Hurricane Notification On Indian Point Nuclear Plant In New York

This sounds like its coming from disgruntled and malicious employees. Pretty high up too. Isn't Indian Point on the way too permanent shutdown. I hope these employees won't harm the harm the plant? 

This also shows the NRC employees aren't paying attention to their work?

One can't imagine the magnitude of the NRC resources that are tending the hurricane crisis at Brunswick and nuclear plants in the south. All nrc eyes are on hurricane Florence. This is a particularly mean time for Indian Point employees to be playing nuclear plant emergency notification games with the NRC?

Or is it a cry for help?
