Cracks found in critical reactor parts at Davis-Besse power plant http://www.cleveland.com/business/index.ssf/2010/03/cracks_found_in_critical_react.html

"There are indications of cracking in 13 of 54 nozzles checked so far," FirstEnergy spokesman Todd Schneider said late Monday. The company will not restart the reactor until it repairs the nozzles, he said.

"We will follow the standard industry-proven plan to make repairs," Schneider said. A similar condition has been found at other reactors, and a repair plan has been developed with input from the Nuclear Regulatory Commission and the Electric Power Research Institute, Schneider said.
