Bulgaria's Nuke Unit Repairs Canceled

Business | November 11, 2006, Saturday // 00:00

Bulgaria's Nuclear Power Plant in Kozloduy has canceled the scheduled repairs of its fifth unit.

The technical problem that required the shutdown of the unit has been cleared in the meantime, the plant announced.

The maintenance activities were supposed to eliminate the increase of the primary circuit coolant controlled leakages. Plant experts will also inspect the pressurizer safety valves and eliminate controlled leakages there too. Today the unit is working full throttle, however, and all the problems are said to be eliminated.

Scheduled annual repairs are still under way in the plant's Unit 6. The works on the unit are supposed to end by November 24.
