The story linked to bellow is one from Activistpost.com. If you are willing to accept Activistpost.com's take on atomic energy, enter the term "chemtrails" into their search window on their website and strap on your tinfoil hat and hang on tight because you are going on the express train to stupid land.

Before anyone gets into panic mode about that article:
Tritium is a mildly radioactive form of hydrogen. It emits beta rays (electrons). The monitoring wells are measuring levels on the trillionth of a curie, which is a very small amount. Tritium is also a byproduct that forms in the cooling water of nuclear plants. You can buy a number of consumer products made with tritium (beta radiation is used to make stuff glow in the dark). The radiation number to be concerned with is called a Sievert, which is a measure of the effects of ionizing radiation (alpha, beta, gamma) on the human body. You are exposed to radiation every day. Claiming that this is worse than what happened at Fukashima is simply bullshit.

Sounds like Entergy is on top of it.
If only i could believe that

65,000% Spike in Radiation Outside New York Nuclear Plant is Likely Worse than FukushimaBuchanan, NY — An uncontrollable radioactive flow from the Indian Point nuclear power plant continues leaking into groundwater, which leads to the Hudson River, raising the specter of a Fukushima-like disaster only 25 miles from New York City. The Indian Point nuclear plant is located on the Hudson River, approximately 25 miles North of NYC, and serves the electrical needs of an estimated 2 million people. Last month, while preparing a reactor for refueling, workers accidentally spilled some contaminated water, containing the radioactive hydrogen isotope tritium, causing a massive radiation spike in groundwater monitoring wells, with one well’s radioactivity increasing by as much as 65,000 percent. Entergy, the Louisiana-based company that owns the plant, chalked up the readings to “fluctuations that can be expected as the material migrates.” According to Entergy, the tritium contaminated water spill was contained within the plant, and never reached the Hudson or any other water source. “There is no impact to public health or safety,” Entergy spokeswoman Patricia Kakridas told RT.
