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 radiological threat,” according to US officials and documents reviewed by CNN.
Recent overhaul at nuclear plant
Ultimately, the June 8 request for assistance from Framatome is the only reason why the US became involved in the situation at all, multiple sources told CNN.
However, 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.
The two nuclear reactors in Taishan are both operational, the statement said, adding that Unit 2 had recently completed an overhaul and successfully connected to the grid on June 10, 2021.
The statement did not define why or how the plant was overhauled.
