RESTART AUTHORIZED The Region III (Chicago) Regional Administrator on July 31, 1986, authorized the licensee to resume operation of the Fermi 2 plant. The unit had been shut down since October 1985 for maintenance, modifications, and correction of a number of management, personnel, and equipment problems. All issues related to the restart of Fermi 2 were resolved prior to the Regicn III authorization.
