Junk Plant Pilgrim: Disgracefull non conforming condition in

This is a flaw in NRC regulation. I mean, somebody purchased them. Non conforming means not knowing for the life of the plant what the true engineering condition of the plant. Having a lot of nonconforming condition of the plant means is you really don't know how the plant work under severe condition or components will break down expectantly. They need to face a severe consequence for this condition. The rub here, is you can see the ineffectiveness of all the NRC activities throughout the plant's life. 

The safety analysis is paper or computer whipped. There really is no actual testing of the piping, say during in a earthquake, where we could prove if it is safe or not. They could make a exact model of the piping system and shake the hell out of it in a test stand.

Paper or computer whipping is highly susceptible to fraud and corruption...

Event Text

CONTROL ROD DRIVE PIPING POTENTIALLY INOPERABLE "On March 25, 2018 at 1616 hours [EDT], with the reactor in cold shutdown condition, two control rod drive piping lines were determined to be potentially inoperable in the event of a design basis earthquake due to support defects. The control rod drive piping forms a portion of the reactor coolant pressure boundary and primary containment boundary. "The supports will be repaired prior to plant startup. "This event had no impact on the health and/or safety of the public. "The NRC Resident Inspector has been notified." The licensee will notify the Commonwealth of Massachusetts. * * * RETRACTION FROM JOE FRATTASIO TO HOWIE CROUCH AT 1500 EDT ON 4/13/18 * * * "The purpose of the notification is to retract ENS notification 53287 made on 03/25/18 for Pilgrim Nuclear Power Station. The previous notification reported that control rod drive (CRD) piping could be potentially inoperable in the event of a design basis earthquake, at the time of discovery, due to piping support defects. Subsequent evaluation has demonstrated that the piping was not inoperable. "Specifically, after an engineering evaluation, it has been determined that the CRD Hydraulic System operability was never lost and the system was operable, although non-conforming, based on the support configuration not conforming to the pipe support drawings. The affected pipe supports have been restored or reworked to the proper design condition in accordance with the design drawings. The CRD System has subsequently been restored to a fully operable status." Notified R1DO (Jackson) and IRD MOC (Pham).
