An initial report from the North Monterey County Fire District said the fire forced an evacuation of a e area in the direction of the plume of smoke. But Monterey County sheriffs officials said later the one-mil- evacuation was carried out over a much smaller area and affected 20 residences. The circuit breaker contained 3,000 gallons of oil, and the blaze could mean a delay in restoring power, said PG&E spokesman Burt Boothroyd in Salinas. The oil contained less than 5 parts per billion of PCBs, or polychlorinated biphenyls, he said. The Environmental Protection Agency has set a safety limit of 50 ppb. PCBs have been used for decades by utilities as an insulating material in electrical components. In the past few years, PCBs have been linked to cancer in animals and are suspected of causing cancer in humans. There is smoke. Apparently there is nothing harmful in the smoke, said Lt. Robert Baehr of the Monterey County Sheriffs Department. In Monterey, Lewis Leader, city editor of the Monterey Peninsula Herald, said traffic lights were out. traffic was backed up and the newswith the exceppapers telephones were out. tion of one line The general evacuation was cancelled when the utility assured authorities there was no danger from chemicals in the smoke, Baehr said. Only 10 or 20 homes were being evacuated, according to Baehr. The Moss Landing facility has seven natural generating units providing more than 1,000 megawatts of electricity. No damage was reported to the units as a result of the explosion. Detonation Planned At Nevada Test Site YUCCA FLAT, Nev. (UPI- )- A nuclear weapon possibly 10 times larger than the atomic bombs dropped on Japan at the end of World War II will be detonated Thursday at the Nevada Test Site 82 miles northwest of Las Vegas, the government announced Tuesday. The Department of Energy said the nuclear weapon, buried 1,585 feet underground, would be triggered at 7 a.m. The test, code named Breton af- ter a French cheese, may generate earth motion felt outside the boundaries of the test site, officials said. Obsessed Mother Charged With Marrying Son CHARLOTTE. Tenn. (UPI) -Mary Ann Carton Bass married her son and hid their kinship from him for six years because she did not want any other woman to have him," a prosecutor said Tuesday. "The son just discovered the true relationship about two weeks ago after hearing rumors and talk from relatives." said Assistant District Attorney General Dan Cook, "lie was very emotionally upset and distraught when he found out. It's just bizarre " Bass, 43, was charged with felonious criminal incest for marrying Danny James Sullivan, 26, in 1978. A separate legal action has been filed to have the marriage annulled Bass was seeking psychiatric help with her son, officials said. "She did not want any other woman to have him but her, said Cook. The woman pleaded innocent and was released on $5,000 bond Monday, then collapsed as reporters and photographers gathered around her in a parking lot outside the Dickson County Courthouse. Bass was still pretty ill" Tuesday, according to a woman who answered the phone at her home but refused to give her name. The penalty for criminal incest is imprisonment for not less than five no more than 21 years. Bass was Sullivan's natural mother for an obsession f and she had also formally adopted him. He was unaware of either fact, officials said. Cook said Bass gave her son up for adoption by the Horace Sullivan family when he was 3 years old. The name of the child's father was not released. When he was 18. Sullivan became curious about his natural parents and returned to the Charlotte area to look for them. Someone suggested he talk to Bass without telling him she was his mother, Cook said, and Sullivan went to visit her. "He went there looking for his mother and met this woman and was not told by this woman that she was & his mother, Cook said. They dated, fell in love and married on Jan. 29, 1978. Bass was 20. She was 37. Another bizarre twist was added. Cook said, by a court petition filed by Bass and her Charles Bass, who was not the child's natural father, to formally adopt Sullivan as their son. The petition was approved even though Bass had already married Sullivan at the time and divorced Charles Bass. Sullivan believed the petition was simply for a name change, Cook said. The 1978 court petition stated that Bass was Sullivan's biological mother and had had custody of him for the last two years. b |
