EDF has continued to discuss the technical issues of this case with the Autorité de Sûreté Nucléaire (French nuclear safety authority) over the last few weeks... These same checks will be carried out on the seals in question in the steam reactors at Blayais 3 (May 2020) ,Bugey 3 (April 2020) ,Dampierre 4 (January 2020) and Paluel 2 (26 October 2019) ,during their next scheduled shutdown for fuel reloading, without any need to expect these shutdowns to last any longer to carry out these checks.
