John Socky and Cliff Garner, construction workers at the Savannah River nuclear plant, reported a 200-gallon spill of heavy water, but the company recorded it as 20. The men pushed for adherence to safe-practices rules, but when management refused, Socky and Garner went to Giraffe Frances Close Hart's Energy Research Foundation and exposed the spill, leading to a federal investigation.
