Is the NuScale Project Going To Become Another Summer Nuclear Plant?

This tells me NuScale has the inability to control their contract with their safety comment supplied associated with quality. Much like the Summer Plant.  Why didn't NuScale catch this on their own and was Target Rock a honorable and trustful component manufacture. The guys built the SRVs I have spent so much time on. It looks like NuScale doesn't have a broad enough organization to maintain quality of the components.

I get it with these anti government nuclear corporations...its all the government's fault for inspecting too much. The NRC is obstructing our new nuclear technology!!! It not our fault.

 SUBJECT: TARGET ROCK’S NUCLEAR REGULATORY COMMISSION INSPECTION REPORT NO. 99900060/2018-201 AND NOTICE OF NONCONFORMANCE

 Dear Mr. DeBonis:
 From May 14–18, 2018, the U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC) conducted an inspection at the Target Rock (TR) facility in East Farmingdale, NY.  The enclosed report presents the results of the inspection.  The purpose of the limited-scope technical inspection was to assess TR’s compliance with the provisions of selected portions of Appendix B, “Quality Assurance Criteria for Nuclear Power Plants and Fuel Reprocessing Plants,” to Title 10 of the Code of Federal Regulations (10 CFR) Part 50, “Domestic Licensing of Production and Utilization Facilities.”
 This technically-focused inspection specifically evaluated TR’s implementation of quality activities associated with the design control activities for the NuScale emergency core cooling system (ECCS) valves being performed by TR.  This NRC inspection report does not constitute NRC endorsement of your overall quality assurance (QA) program.
 During this inspection, the NRC inspection team found that implementation of your QA program failed to meet certain NRC requirements contractually imposed on you by your customers or NRC licensees.  Specifically, the NRC inspection team determined that TR was not implementing aspects of its design control and test programs consistent with regulatory requirements.  The specific finding and references to the pertinent requirements are identified in the enclosures to this letter.  In the response to the enclosed notice of nonconformance (NON), TR should document the results of the extent of condition and determine if there are any effects on other safety-related components.
 Please provide a written explanation or statement within 30 days of this letter in accordance with the instructions specified in the enclosed NON.  We will consider extending the response time if you show good cause for us to do so.
 In accordance with 10 CFR 2.390, “Public Inspections, Exemptions, Requests for Withholding,” of the NRC’s Rules of Practice, a copy of this letter, its enclosures, and your response will be made available electronically for public inspection in the NRC Public Document Room or from...
