    Peach Bottom faces NRC scrutiny - BY GARRY LENTON, The Patriot-News, PA
    About 10 guards employed by the Wackenhut Corp., were videotaped sleeping on duty by a co-worker on four occasions last year. The video was leaked to CBS News after the co-worker, Kerry Beal, was unable to convince his supervisor at Wackenhut Corp. to take action to stop the practice.

    Exelon responded by firing Wackenhut as the security provider at all 10 of its nuclear plants. The company created an in-house security division.
