Ohio News In Brief: Perry Plant Crack Under Scrutiny
A former Perry Nuclear Power Plant subcontractor worker claims a 2 to 3 foot crack under a reactor was never properly investigated by inspectors or plant managers. He doubts it was a geologic fault and says the NRC and utility never reviewed or notified about the issue. The $2.6 billion plant near Cleveland is being built by Cleveland Electric Daminating Co. and will have two reactors. The report also covers Ohio House plans to restore motorcycle helmet rules with debates on penalties for noisy bikes, and Cleveland Public Schools seeking a five year extension on a $20.7 million state loan amid financial strain.
