-Slutsatsen vi tar är att Ringhals behöver fundera över om det verkligen är rätt åtgärder man vidtar eller om man måste göra insatser med större bredd eller större tyngd i organisationen för att få ett ordentligt genomslag, säger Leif Karlsson som är enhetschef för den avdelning inom Strålsäkerhetsmyndigheten som har hand om drifttillsynen.-The conclusion we take is that Ringhals need to figure out if it really is the right actions that are taken or if it needs to take actions with the greater width or greater weight in the organization to have a successful impact, says Leif Karlsson, who is head of the department of Radiation Protection in charge of operational supervision.
Ringhals har redan stått under särskild tillsyn i 2,5 år och med det senaste beslutet får kärnkraftsanläggningen ytterligare ett halvår på sig att få ordning på verksamheten. Men nu börjar Strålsäkerhetsmyndigheten tappa tålamodet.Ringhals has already been under special supervision for 2.5 years and the recent decision gives another six months in which to get the business in order. But now the department of Radiation Protection losing patience.
-Det kan komma en situation där vi helt enkelt säger att vi inte har förtroende för Ringhals att driva verksamheten, säger Leif Karlsson. -Och då får de inte köra kraftverket.-There may come a situation where we simply say we do not trust Ringhals to run this, says Leif Karlsson. And then they do not run the power plant.

Ringhals - owned by Vattenfall - has four of Sweden's ten reactors. Three of those four reactors was recently not operating. To withdraw the permission to operate would be a huge deal, and I doubt that will happen. The mention of it is in my reading an indication of frustration at lack of improvements.
