Performance Issues

  • NRC Performance Indicators

- All indicators are Green with the exception of AF Heat Removal. The Unit 2 indicator is White due to three 2B AF functional failures in March and November 2005 and January 2006. Supplemental 95001 inspection complete. Expected return to green by April 2008.

- Potential White finding in 2Q2008 due to Oct 2007 dual unit shutdown caused by the SX riser degradation. This will be followed up by a 95001 inspection after completion of corrective actions.
