LEAK AT OYSTER CREEK NUCLEAR PLANT UNDER REPAIR

A pinhole leak was found Tuesday night at the Oyster Creek nuclear power plant in Lacey Township. Officials at the plant say the leak on a reactor head spray nozzle of 2 to 3 drops per minute does not pose a safety hazard for workers or the public. The leak is being repaired, and the plant is currently offline due to a refueling outage. Nuclear Regulatory Commission officials say the reactor is safe.
