The Lucknow Sentinel, 2014-10-15, Page 9Wednesday, October 15, 2014 • Lucknow Sentinel 9 Bruce Power to invest $86 million into Unit Ripley Fall Fair Results 5 during planned maintenance outage Submitted One of the world's top - performing CANDU reac- tors is now receiving $86.7 million worth of planned maintenance, after a 516 - day continuous run. Bruce Power's Unit 5 was safely removed from ser- vice on Friday, Oct. 3, 2104 for the planned outage, which is scheduled for 50 days. About 400 temporary workers have been hired for the outage. "Unit 5 has completed yet another impressive run of continuous operation, running without fail for the people of Ontario since its last planned maintenance outage in early -2013," said Brian O'Grady, Senior Vice President, Bruce B. "Bruce Power's $86 million invest- ment in this planned main- tenance outage will set up Unit 5 well for another long stretch of providing safe, reliable and carbon -free energy to the people of Ontario." Bruce Power will also harvest about 25 rods of Cobalt -60 from the Unit 5 reactor during the outage. The Cobalt -60 will be used by Ottawa -based MDS Nordion to sanitize medi- cal instruments to help maintain public safety in our hospitals, O'Grady added. Bruce Power is the largest supplier of Cobalt -60 in Ontario.
