Mouse-hole in Secondary Containment at Hope Creek Nuclear Power Station? Does it Matter?

Did a Mouse Make a Hole in the Secondary Containment of Hope Creek Nuclear Power Station? “1 inch diameter hole was discovered in the secondary containment wall,…”
Who done it? Does this mouse look guilty? Like the culprit?
