Missing: one radioactive part for a nuclear reactor.
The Canadian Nuclear Safety Commission is demanding answers after a radioactive part vanished for almost two months at Bruce Power.
Staff working for Atomic Energy Canada misplaced the 10-centimetre part in April while working on a restart of the plant.
They didn’t tell anyone until an employee at the Bruce accidentally came across it last month.
The missing piece triggered the alarm on his radiation monitor.
The nuclear regulator wants to know why the loss of the part was kept quiet until it was discovered by accident.
