Hi,

Thanks for the good news that the Plant is performing at full capacity (instead of at ~50% a couple months ago).

Yes, now, people are making the shims etc. today and hopefully the end-walls can be installed tomorrow. All eyes are on them to finish installing
the end-walls as soon as possible so that we can start the cool-down :-) Rob Karl (et. al.) told me last Friday that they want to finish as soon as
possible, too.

Kin,

Plant is performing at capacity.

We had to turn the plant down, since we won’t start cooldown until Wednesday morning?

Hi,

Can you tell whether the plant in 912 is close to its 100% capacity ?
