PLGS-1995 SLAR Program

Abstract

The Pt. Lepreau SLAR Program began after the successful use of the SLAR MK.III Tool during the 1993 Pt. Lepreau G.S. Maintenance Outage. Preparations began immediately to assemble staff and equipment to complete a full core SLAR starting in April 1995. Installation and commissioning of the SUR System at site began on March 29195 and on reactor operations started on April J 5/95. A total of 372 channels were visited with SLAR and all but 4 were dispositioned to the target life of 241, 500 Effective Full Power Hours. SLAR operations were completed on October 5/95 and within 7 days the Fuel Handling System was returned to pre-SLAR configuration and functionally tested. The SLAR Program was completed on schedule and within budget.
