Monticello

Monticello has at least a 65 day outage.  Major work for EPU.  Replacing the Steam Dryer etc.  7 year Sr RP's $30.00/ hr without bonus.  Also taking Junior's.  The plan is move the old dryer out whole.  This ought to be interesting.

Did the same thing at Quad and Dresden. Dresden had a dryer cover made out of 600 denier material for transport. Opened up the side of the reactor building and made a porch with a small rail system. Interesting.

Hello,

I'm new to the message board and after lurking around for a bit have decided to post. I'm a Surface Navy Nuke Machinist Mate Chief planning on finishing out my 20 toward the end of 2012. I'm extremely interested in looking at job possibilities at the Monticello plant. I know my retirement date is a ways off, but I want to start getting my ducks in a row. Just looking to start communicating with some people currently working at the plant who might be willing to guide me.

Thanks
Leighton

Got a call today from Bartlett, Monticello fall outage cancelled.  Looks like a sit out this fall, all outages staffed.  So much for a 65 day outage.  Guess the parts needed were the wrong size when the came.  What ever happened to measure twice cut (order) once.

Does Monticello have a hot food line yet, or do I bring in my own soup?

Chatters, something like a Buffalo Wild Wings, will be running a kitchen for meals here on site during the outage which starts first part of March, and is scheduled for 85.5 days.
