Sandy's winds could cause up to $3 billion damage, FEMA estimates – This Just In - CNN.com Blogs: [Update 5:15 p.m. ET] "The Nuclear Regulatory Commission says it will have on-site inspectors at all nuclear power stations that could be affected by Hurricane Sandy. The inspectors will be in place ahead of the storm and will stay at the power plants until the event is over.

No power station has been taken offline at this point, but each station has protocols and procedures for going offline, NRC spokesman Neil Sheehan said."
