Greg Warnick, NRC Chief Reqxtor Inspector just shares that in late July inspectors found several issues.
Issue 1) during cleaning process on outside of transport cask a cleaning cloth was dropped into spend fuel pool.

2) failure to enter an issue about the staining of canister 31

3) @holtecintl worker walked under canister transporter heavy machinery. Required more than 4 hours of “safety time out”. The shield plate of transporter was closed for 4 hrs+ preventing air flow cooling.

At 4 hours workers partially opened shield plate.

Not proper procedure.

4) monitors were not on during both insert and removal of canisters at interim spent fuel storage installation on-site.

The NRC also found water intrusion in the unloaded canisters stored on-site.

They closed the presentation by saying these issues do not have safety significance and that they were not “risk significant”.

There are 49 speakers from the community. The community is concerned for their health and safety.

@RepMikeLevin is speaking now.

“SONGS’ record requires greater NRC inspection.”

“Restoring public trust requires that you [@NRCgov] take actions that are not merely ‘adequate’.”

.@NRCgov just attempted to to do a 10-minute recess. To shouts and refusal of audience.
