Als Ergebnis kann zusammenfassend festgestellt werden,
· dass nach unserem Kenntnisstand eine ausreichende Wirksamkeit des vom Ereignis betroffenen Sicherheitssystems während des Leistungsbetriebs der Anlage jederzeit gegeben war, eine objektive Gefährdung des Personals, der Umgebung und der Anlage nicht vorlag, d. h. auch unter konservativen Bedingungen,
· dass aber das verantwortliche Personal in mehreren Punkten die Betriebsvorschriften nicht in dem Umfang eingehalten hat, wie es geboten gewesen wäre.
How egregious was their failure to follow instructions? What's the apt English idiom in this case?
