ORSE Board Shuts Down Ukrainian Reactor Plant

BAM

Ukraine – The last operational reactor at the Russian-held Zaporizhzhia nuclear plant in Ukraine has been fully stopped after the ORSE Board assessed the plant’s operations as Below Average with Message.

The six-reactor Zaporizhzhia plan was cut off from the grid after all its power lines were disconnected as a result of SBA Cleanliness, Preservation, and Stowage, BA Drills, and an Average 35 records review. It ran in “island mode” for several days, generating electricity for crucial cooling systems from its only remaining operational reactor.

Ukraine said the shutdown was because the risk of further damage to the power lines “remains high,” which would disconnect the plant completely from the power grid again.

However, The Subpar Group’s on scene reporter confirmed from the ORSE Senior Board Member that the shutdown is a result of significant complacency, poor procedural compliance, and a lack of questioning attitude from the plants watchstanders.

“Not one member of the on-watch section referenced the procedure for ‘Operating the Reactor Plant Systems While under Constant Watch from an Enemy Nation’ during our entire inspection,” said ORSE SBM Captain Mark Fritz. “Complacency to that degree doesn’t happen overnight, but rather is the result of years of degradation of standards and indicative of a command wide systematic problem.”
