Summary

Original text of the question(s):<br /> <br /> What information or findings led the experts in the reactor safety department of the Federal Ministry for the Environment, Nature Conservation and Nuclear Safety, BMU, to no longer demand the immediate shutdown of the Grafenrheinfeld reactor and the immediate replacement of the cracked component?<br /> <br /> How can it be that an incident that, in the opinion of Experts in the BMU's reactor safety department would have resulted in a possible "level 3 incident - reportable incident" or would have been categorized as such, which was classified as harmless by the operator Eon and was only reported to the BMU six months after it became known?
