provides the background of the process While we were there, the plant was shut down becauseof low water levels. Scotland was in the midst of a serious drought That was actually a good thing since we could see the equipment and focus on the explanation without the customary near 100 degree temperature We were not allowed to take photographs in the plant itself |
