The following statement by Governor Andrew Cuomo was submitted on March 29, 2016.
“This afternoon, the state learned that
hundreds of faulty bolts were discovered within the reactor at the
Indian Point Unit 2 Plant. This is the latest in a long series of
incidents that raise deep concerns about the management, maintenance and
equipment standards at this plant. While there is no immediate danger
to public health and safety, this troubling news further validates the
State’s ongoing investigation into the operations of this aging power
plant and our position that it should not be relicensed. New York State
will continue to investigate every facet of the plant’s operations and
safety preparedness while ensuring that these critical defects are
addressed immediately.”
