Acter Nuclear Power Plant

The Acter Nuclear Power Plant is a nuclear power plant in the Acter Industrial Park, Alderney City in the State of Alderney featured in Grand Theft Auto IV.

Design
It is identical to the Hatch Nuclear Power Plant in Baxley, Georgia and has two boiling water reactors in one reactor complex. To cool the two reactors there are two cooling towers that are higher than 100m and that can be seen from Plumbers Skyway and even from parts of Algonquin. The 7 story high reactor is located near the sea next to another power plant. In the area around the nuclear power plant there is also a large oil refinery and another power plant with a cooling tower.

Security Guards and State Troopers have a notable presence in the area. This is important because of the high crime rate in some districts nearby. While the plant is surrounded by a fence for additional perimeter security, the player can easily enter the facility. There are also stairs leading to the roof of the reactor. To protect the area against any possible flooding, a protective sea wall is situated here.

There is a person that can sometimes be seen on the top of one of the cooling towers who seems to be a worker.

Trivia

 * The burning chimneys can cause both the player and/or their vehicle to catch fire.
 * There is a capsized shipwreck on the shore just west of the plant.
 * If the player attempts to go into one of the cooling towers (by flying a helicopter into one or jumping into one from a helicopter), the game can sometimes freeze for an unknown reason (confirmed on the Xbox 360).
