Of Russian ports that live with nuclear plants
Udomlya's residents go fishing, swimming and raise their families just a few kilometers away from one of Russia's largest nuclear power plants.
The Kalinin Nuclear Power Plant, with four reactors, dominates the landscape of Udomlya, a small town in Russia, and plays a significant role in its economy. The plant provides around 6,000 jobs, or 25% of the town's working-age population, and cooperates with local schools, colleges, and universities to develop future talent. The plant's operations are accompanied by continuous monitoring of radiation levels, with results made available to the public through display boards and online.
The town appears to have a normal daily life, with residents gardening, fishing, and swimming in the lakes used by the plant's cooling system, which are strictly monitored for radionuclides and temperature changes.
