Technical Report ·
DOI:https://doi.org/10.2172/719567· OSTI ID:719567
The plant operated at full power throughout the month of December, achieving a 98.9% Operational Efficiency Factor. The plant also set a new FFTF Annual Capacity Factor record of 78.5% during this past year. For the eleventh straight month there have been no unplanned automatic scrams or forced outages. With no lost work day injuries occurring in December, none have occurred for eleven straight months, nearly achieving our 1988 Annual Lost Work Day Case Rate goal---unattainable because of two incidents last January. Overall performance indicators reflect very good FFTF operation. Concentrated effort is required to keep maintenance backlogs within parameters that compare favorably with the best commercial plants. 26 figs., 2 tabs.
