As well you should. Most don't even have backup generators for the cooling pumps like the ones that failed in Fukushima. If there are widespread prolonged power outages even the inland ones may be an issue, like the one 12mi from me.
Man, I would not want to be on Long Island or in Southern New Jersey right now. The central pressure is about as low as they've ever recorded previously.
Actually they all do. Primary coolant pumps are steam driven, secondarys are Electric and have a primary and secondary diesel generator, plus battery back up should off site power fail, and a redundant system run off of a dedicated diesel fire pump. In addition, on site fire protection assets and "Other" systems can be utilized for cooling. Site specifics are different, but the generic requirements for liscensing are the same.
The safest condition for any contingency is when the thing is operating at full tilt.
The operations guys have gamed every scenario likely and a bunch that aren't.
This isn't Japan. Indian point has issues, but thier Navy Nuke operations crew isn't one of 'em.
Stay safe!
