Fwd: Point Beach Nuclear Plant From the web page- The issue relates to PB not looking further upon finding problems with an RPV weld. However, according to the individual, the NRC does not require the PT test that found the problem. If we have evaluated the appropriateness of not completing further PT tests after finding problems on one weld, this may not be an allegation. Nonetheless, it looks like this requires a prompt response from the technical staff since the plant is starting up soon.

Sorry if this is a repeat email- I sent one earlier before I was finished!!
