The results of the conducted tests show all acceptance criteria were met and are in conformance with our letter entitled "Physics Test Program" and dated October 31, 1979 except symmetric rod worth. We have determined that the symmet;ric rod worth test revealed a small core tilt not significant enough to be of concern at power and not indicative of a core loading error. Please note that a supplemental report will be submitted for power distribution after reaching full power at Palisades.
