Could Jenkinsville South Carolina be the site of the next engineered collapse?
Nuclear regulators sounded the alarm over cracks in the pipe system for the nuclear power plant in Jenkinsville—a very serious matter indeed.
Regulations are typically nonsense, but cracks forming in nuclear infrastructure or anything wrong with the plant could cause a catastrophe and should be ample reason for concern. The regulators’ first instincts were correct.
However, these same regulators have since downgraded their warning after Dominion Energy, the company that operates the plant, was able to show them that they had backup generator systems that could function for six hours.
Six hours is still considered underperformance, but not cause for ‘immediate concern’ the regulators claim. The Associated Press provided this statement from NRC Region II Administrator Laura Dudes:
“While not indicative of immediate risk, this finding underscores the need for continuous vigilance and improvement in the plant’s corrective action process.”
Yeah, no thank you, Laura. This dismissal has Three-Mile Island written all over it. I hope the plant truly poses no threat, but something tells me not to trust these people. Multiple news outlets confirmed the issue:
