#CNN Exclusive : Reported leak at Chinese nuclear power facility, 130km from Hong Kong
//The #US government has spent the past week assessing a report of a leak at a Chinese nuclear power plant, after a French company that part owns and helps operate it warned of an "imminent #RadiologicalThreat," according to US officials and documents reviewed by CNN.
The warning included an accusation that the Chinese safety authority was raising the acceptable limits for radiation detection outside the Taishan Nuclear Power Plant in #Guangdong province in order to avoid having to shut it down, according to a letter from Framatome the French company to the US Department of Energy obtained by CNN.
#Framatome had reached out to the US in order to obtain a waiver that would allow them to share American technical assistance in order to resolve the issue at the Chinese plant. There are only two reasons why this waiver would be granted, and one is an "imminent radiological threat," the same verbiage used in the June 8 memo.
The memo claims the Chinese limit was increased to exceed French standards, yet it remains unclear how that compares to US limits.
"It is not surprising that the French would reach out," according to Cheryl Rofer, a nuclear scientist who retired from Los Alamos National Laboratory in 2001. "In general, this sort of thing is not extraordinary, particularly if they think the country they are contacting has some special ability to help."
"But #China likes to project that everything is just fine, all the time," she added.
...the Taishan Nuclear Power Plant published a statement on its website Sunday night local time, maintaining that environmental readings for both the plant and its surrounding area were "normal."...//

Global alert: China plans to lead the world in nuclear energy development
While most of the world’s major powers, such as Germany and the United States, put aside nuclear reactor-based energy development over the past decades, the Chinese communist regime increased it exponentially.
