But from the reports I have read/heard, the major problem was the
fact that both back-up water pumping stations (both the diesel
generator operated pump and battery operated pumps failed.


They cant have failed completely otherwise they couldnt
have pumped sea water into the reactors and they did.


Among other things they have been using fire engines to pump water into

the
reactors, so it's possible that all the pumps built into the plant are in
fact down.


They're air dropping buckets of water from firefighting helos. That's CAN'T
be a good sign.
