It wasn’t handled perfectly, but the level of incompetence wasn’t nearly on the same level. Venting the Xenon and dumping the tritium water wasn’t exactly advised without approval but people acted on their own to do them. By far the biggest mistake was the comment from the power company spokesperson that he doesn’t need to tell the public everything they do.

Yeah, but the government came behind and made it happen.
Three Mile Island should be held up as a “why we need regulation and government oversight” example IMO.
The business wanted to save face, they were obligated to be more forthcoming by the state.
