WATERFORD, Conn. (AP) — Federal regulators began an inspection of Connecticut’s nuclear power plant Monday, more than a week after a power failure forced both units to shut down and water was found to be slightly radioactive.

The Nuclear Regulatory Commission announced it’s examining the response by Millstone Power Station to the May 25 outage that lasted about six hours. Inspectors will look at equipment performance and evaluations by owner Dominion Resources Inc.
