Nuclear plants still pose safety hazards
But advocacy group points to declining accident numbers
WASHINGTON — The nation's nuclear power plants reported nearly 2,000 safety-related incidents last year, reflecting continuing safety risks, a citizen advocacy group said yesterday. But industry officials said the numbers were lower than previous years, showing steady safety improvements.
The Associated Press
Public Citizen, a non-profit advocacy group founded by Ralph Nader, said the 111 commercial nuclear reactors in the United States had 192 safety tests last fall and had to be reported to the Nuclear, Regulatory Commission.
Among those incidents were 177 in which plants immediately had to be shut down, 894 cases involving violations of federal safety regulations and 404 reports of safety system failures, the group said.
The number of incidents in which there was concern about a potential threat to the health and safety of the public declined from 85 in 1989 to 38
last year, according to the group's review of NRC records.
Nevertheless, report co-author David Trickett said the statistics showed there was an on-going risk of a Chernobyl-scale accident in this country, referring to the large Soviet nuclear accident in 1986.
NRC representative Foe Jouchand didn't dispute the statistics. However, he said the agency believed the atomic power plants were safer because of increased scrutiny because of increased scrutiny by both industry and federal regulators.
"There's been steady improvements in the last few years." Fouchard said. "Our performance indicators show automatic shutdowns are down, safety system interruptions are down, significant events are down, collective radiation exposures are down."
Industry officials, although not challenging the numbers, criticized Public Citizen's characterization of the statistics.
"Public Citizen is again trying to recycle misleading claims about the safety and performance of U.S. nuclear energy plants," said the U.S. Energy Awareness Commission, communications clearinghouse for the nuclear industry.
