I wonder how much cooling the Cam could do in summer...;-)

Enough for half a gigawatt perhaps?




A few years back I went boating in March (Tubing, they lied about how
fast they wouldn't go.) in an Illinois lake used for reactor cooling.
The lake was fed by two rivers which had a dam built to create the lake.
The water temperature was around 80F, just like a warm bath! You could
fish there as well as play with boats and water ski. However I didn't
see anybody eating the fish! I think the Cam would boil.
