Company: Bruce Power L.P.
Summary
On September 1, 2022, the Canadian Nuclear Safety Commission issued Bruce Power Inc. a $24,760 administrative monetary penalty. The regulator found that Bruce Power failed to quarantine and segregate suspect end fittings, resulting in one being inadvertently installed during Unit 6 refurbishment, and failed to correct the problem after staff identified it. This was an administrative regulatory finding, not a criminal conviction. Primary source: https://www.cnsc-ccsn.gc.ca/eng/acts-and-regulations/regulatory-action/bruce-power-inc/
