An official says a Czech nuclear power plant is shutting down one of its four reactors due to a pipe leaking irradiated water but cautions there is no safety threat. Petr Spilka, spokesman for the Dukovany nuclear plant says the problem occurred on a small pipe that vents air from a water system located inside the reactor's containment structure. He says the water cannot get out of the containment structure and t he malfunction poses no threat. He said the reactor will be shut down later Friday. It is not clear when it could be restarted. Despite Japan's nuclear crisis, the Czech government has pledged to develop its nuclear program and build at least two more reactors at another nuclear plant in Temelin.
