Romanian operator says IAEA 'positive' on nuke plant
Bucharest (AFP) June 11, 2008 The UN's atomic watchdog has given Romania's nuclear power plant in Cernavoda a clean bill of health, the plant's operator Nuclearelectrica said Wednesday. Inspectors of the International Atomic Energy Agency, who visited the plant at the beginning of this month, issued a "positive report" on the plant, Nuclearelectrica said in a statement. The IAEA experts found that Cernavoda "applies and meets national and international guidelines for radioactive safety with regard to the running of the plant under conditions of maximum security for the public, the environment and employees," the statement said. "The report finds no shortcomings in the radioactive and environmental protection programmes." Two reactors are currently operating at Cernavoda and a further two are scheduled to come into operation by 2014.
