Gross electrical generation was 351,821 MRHe or 87.6% design electrical capacity.

Operating Summary The following is a chronological description of plant operations including other pertinent items of interest for the month:

1/1/80 At the beginning of the reporting period, the plant was generating at 99% of rated thermal power.

1/5/80 At 0545 commenced shutdown to repair leaking RHR valve V10-81B.

At 0922 the turbine was removed from the grid.

1/6/80 At 0045 repairs were completed and the reactor was critical. The '

turbine was phased into the grid at 1221.

1/10/80 At 0100 power was reduced to perform a control rod pattern adjust-ment.

At 0730 the adjustment was completed and a power ascension was initiated.

1/18/80 At 2300 power was reduced to perform turbine surveillance and a control rod pattern adjustment.

1/19/80 At 0430 the control rod pattern adjustment was completed and a power ascension initiated.

1/20/80 At 0530 a power reduction was initiated due to an indicated in-crease in turbine vibrations.

At 1205 the power reduction was terminated at 30% power.

At 1440 repairs were completed and a power ascension was initiated.
