“Indian Point's Baffling Reactor Bolts: The Implications for Nuclear Safety and Other Reactors”

In recent weeks an unprecedented nuclear safety issue has come to light from an inspection of the Indian Point 2 reactor. Hundreds of the bolts holding together key reactor vessel internals were missing or damaged. This was not supposed to happen: NRC and the industry have dismissed concerns about aging-related degradation of reactor vessel internals for years.

Union of Concerned Scientists’ nuclear safety expert David Lochbaum reviews the recent discovery and discuss the nuclear safety implications for reactors throughout the country.

NRC has made the same inspections mandatory at all reactors in the coming years, but it raises the question: “Will those inspections happen fast enough?” After his presentation, David answers your questions to kick off a discussion.
