NRC accepts Ginna SLR application as Constellation seeks 20-year extension
The Nuclear Regulatory Commission has accepted Constellation’s subsequent license renewal application to extend operations at the Ginna nuclear power plant by another 20 years.
If approved, the Ontario, N.Y., facility’s operating license would be extended through September 18, 2049. The plant was first issued a 40-year license in 1969, followed by a 20-year renewal in 2004 that extended the license into 2029.

In case of a drift-type disturbance, the systematic error of the period to be measured is reduced by the formation of first-order differences between the counts in successive time intervals. The influence of the correlation between the differences on the error of the period to be measured is studied; a connection is found between the parameters of the experiment to fulfill the condition that the correlation between the differences should be equal to zero; the precision limits of the period and reactivity measurements are obtained.
