Nuclear Reactors 25 - Cracks at Shearon
The operators of the Shearon Harris nuclear plant near New Hills, North Carolina have announced that a quarter inch crack was found in a reactor sensor. The operators said that there was no evidence that any radioactive materials had leaked and they shut the plant down to be on the safe side. They did not know how long it would take to repair the crack but insisted that they had plenty of electrical capacity in the area and it would not be necessary to purchase external power.

Corruption 5 - Yakuza and Japanese Nuclear Industry
I have mentioned in a previous blog about the involvement of the Yakuza, the Japanese criminal syndicates, in the nuclear industry in Japan. For decades, they have supplied cheap labor to the nuclear industry. They are connected to the real estate market and construction industry in Japan. Their influence reaches into government. The pervasive presence of the Yakuza in the Japanese nuclear industry has been getting increase scrutiny lately because of Fukushima.
