Is the NRC's III Division Director Troy Pruett political disease in Region II?
I bet you if they had shut down Browns Ferry their could have concentrated their resources a lot more effectively. It would have made their job as a regulator a lot more easy?
Sounds like Swafford is saying, bug off NRC or I will sic my mad dog southern Republicans and the gang of four pro industry commissioners at you.
Browns Ferry isn't ready to inspect
excerpts:
TVA's nuclear operations chief told officials with the Nuclear Regulatory Agency on Tuesday that Browns Ferry is not ready yet for a third and final special NRC inspection to clear its "red" safety rating.
"We will not invite an inspection team in until have confidence we are ready. ... I can't even give you a ballpark estimate now when that will be."
NRC's regional administrator, Victor McCree, said after the meeting that the federal regulatory agency will take that answer in stride.
"I've been at the mindset that there's no point stressing accountability for procedures we know will change. Holding people accountable to inferior products isn't fair to the employees," Swafford said.
