The ORR operated at an average power level of 29.0 MW for 80.9% of the time during October, November, and December of 1978. The reactor was shut down on fourteen occasions, four of which were unscheduled. Reactor downtime needed for refueling, maintenance and checks was normal, with the reactor remaining available for operation 92.2% of the time. Maintenance activities, both mechanical and instrument, were essentially routine in nature.
