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.

Comparisons made between experimental results of loss-of-fluid test small-break experiments L3-1, L3-5, and L3-6 and analyses using preliminary versions of the RETRAN-02 code show that several questions that exist about the experiments confound the code comparisons. It was concluded that the code predicts the broad trends observed in the experiments, however, code improvements may be needed to better model the phase separation and flow stratification effects.
