'Irreparable' safety issues: All US nuclear reactors should be replaced, 'Band-Aids' won't help
All 104 nuclear reactors currently operational in the US have irreparable safety issues and should be taken out of commission and replaced, former chairman of the US Nuclear Regulatory Commission, Gregory B. Jaczko said.

Indian Point supervisor arrested for deliberately falsifying critical safety records
July 24, 2013 By Lucas Hixson~Entergy announced on Tuesday that a former supervisor, who worked at the Indian Point nuclear power plant north of New York City for twenty-nine years, had been arrested for deliberately falsifying critical safety records and lying to federal regulators last year. The utility said that Daniel Wilson, age 57, who was in charge of ensuring compliance in critical safety areas, falsified tests and records related to the quality of fuel in back-up tanks for the emergency diesel generators installed at the nuclear power plant which are necessary to prevent core damage in the event of a loss of power.January and February of 2012, Wilson was questioned by other Indian Point employees while conducting a self-assessment in preparation for an NRC inspection. During the inspection preparations, workers had noted that no condition reports had been created after three tests had shown non-compliance and no additional steps had been taken to correct the problem. After the findings, Wilson logged into the company database under another employee's name and fabricated test data for resample tests which were never actually taken. On February 6th, the defendant filed three falsified test results in the official plant record database which had purportedly been sampled within two weeks of the three samples which had been found in excess of federal regulations.
After being questioned by his co-workers about the lack of documentation, Wilson created a condition report, which the Nuclear Regulatory Commission regularly relies upon for inspecting nuclear power stations for safety, which gave additional false information and explanations for the lack of supporting documentation for the test results which he falsified. The defendant claimed to have conducted additional tests on the fuel in-house, but further investigations found that at the time Indian Point did not have any in-house procedures in place for testing the particulate matter concentrations. According to the documents, Wilson later admitted his guilt to NRC officials, but claimed that he had fabricated the test results in order that Indian Point would not be forced to shut down.

PLANT SAFETY
Plant operations are a major concern at Indian Point, which has a long history of safety problems. Currently, the plant does not meet more than 100 federal fire safety standards and has suffered serious deterioration (including corroded piping, leaking spent fuel pools and exploding transformers) during its 40-year operating life. Moreover, in the wake of Japan's Fukushima nuclear meltdown, the NRC has rated Indian Point the most earthquake- vulnerable nuclear facility in America.
RADIOACTIVE WASTE
Indian Point has one of the largest stockpiles of spent fuel in the U.S. Approximately 1,500 tons of radioactive waste is stored in densely packed pools at Indian Point. No containment structures exist over the spent fuel pools, leaving them vulnerable to sabotage. If Indian Point is relicensed, an additional 1,000 tons of highly radioactive waste will be produced and stored at the site indefinitely.
Since the 1990's, radioactive contaminants, including highly toxic Strontium-90 and Cesium-137, as well as tritium have been leaking from Indian Point's spent fuel pools into the groundwater and the Hudson River. Entergy has no realistic plan to prevent future radioactive leaks from ever-aging and degraded plant components. Decades of accidental leaks have resulted in two large plumes of contamination at the site, which Entergy refuses to remediate; instead, these toxic radionuclides will continue to leach into the environment and contaminate the Hudson River for decades.
