SUMMARY
OF OPERATING EXPERIENCE FOR THE MONTH OF DECEMBER 1980 Reactor went critical on December 10 after outage to balance turbine and repair various pieces of equipment.
Condenser vacuum problems precipitated a slow ascension in power.
Plant ran at near full power until December 23 when the plant tripped due to inadvertent closing of the turbine.reheat intercept valves.
The reactor was taken critical later that same day and the plant was brought to full power on December 24 and remained at full power the remainder of the month.
