[quote:Waterbug:MV8xNTM3MTQ2XzI2OTQyNDU4XzJEMTFBNkMw] Report raises concerns over safety of nuclear plants The government's nuclear industry regulator said it is continuing to monitor information from foreign counterparts after safety concerns were raised about construction processes at a Chinese power plant being built by two French companies who want to construct similar installations in Britain. The concerns mirror some of those raised at sites in France and Finland, which are also being built and operated by EDF and Areva. A report on the Taishan site which was compiled immediately before building started, warned the Chinese plant's managers that "quality control of concrete pouring should be strengthened" and they should make proper preparations for wet weather, which can affect the construction process. The report, apparently put together by safety inspectors, also highlighted concerns that the rock underlying part of the site has "relatively pronounced fractures", a lack of experienced personnel onsite due to the "fast pace" of the project's progression, and fears over the availability of important documents related to construction, among other concerns. http://www.independent.co.uk/news/uk/home-news/report-raises-concerns-over-safety-of-nuclear-plants-2352222.html [/quote]
