"Meanwhile, the draft used fuel pool study has concluded that there is approximately a one-in-10-million-years chance of a severe earthquake causing a radioactive release from a used fuel pool at a US boiling water reactor (BWR)."

"A boiling water reactor", not "this boiling reactor" or "a standalone reactor". You're wrong by virtue of the syntax alone, whether the reactors are on the same site, whether they have different figures or not.

You're wrong.
