AMARILLO, TEXAS -- The flooding we had two weeks ago is still keeping Pantex busy.

It had tens of millions of dollars worth of damage. Right now, we're told, it's operating on a limited basis, it has lost some equipment, and it's looking at how to replace them.

We understand some of the startup programs were only affected slightly, and those will start up again after a safety violation.

The plant received more than ten inches of rain on July 7, and 8.
