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.

A coupled and transient calculation method for a posteriori evaluation of coarse-mesh boiling water reactor core calculation results was developed. An analysis of the local power density shape in the environment of the topmost end of the control element was made. The influence on the sections of the fuel pins being exposed by a small control-element withdrawal has been investigated. The transient calculation results of response in the power density to a 16-cm-long, 4 cm/s speed control-element ramp are discussed.
