Constellation seeks FERC help with Crane restart
When the former Three Mile Island-1 restarts in 2027 as the Crane Clean Energy Center, it will not face a delay of several years before it can be reconnected to the grid, Constellation CEO Joseph Dominguez said this week.
Among the items that emerged on Constellation and the Crane restart in Middletown, Pa., during last week’s CERAWeek energy conference was a Reuters report on an analysis from electric grid provider PJM suggesting the plant may not be connected to the grid until 2031.

Containment, Control, and Maintenance of Tritium System | doi.org/10.13182/FST88-A25250

Tritium in the heavy water systems of Ontario Hydro's Nuclear Generating Stations presents a radiological hazard both to station personnel and to the environment. Careful design of equipment, containment and the use of personal protective equipment reduces but does not remove the hazard. To deal more effectively with the problem, Ontario Hydro plans to remove the tritium in a new facility currently under construction. Accordingly, the management of tritium, by the selective use of the tritium removal facility, will play an important role in reducing the tritium hazards at the stations. This paper describes the models and management techniques used.
