The licensee then provided a presentation of their completed, in-progress, and future activities regarding the replacement of PINGPs, Unit 2 steam generators. During their presentation, the licensee also discussed plans for disassembly, removal, and disposition of the existing PINGP, Unit 2 steam generators. In addition, the licensee addressed in detail any applicable operating experience related to San Onofre Nuclear Generating Station (SONGS) steam generators issue for the new replacement steam generators for PINGP, Unit 2.
