Reactor re-fueling imminent

In the coming days, a routine refueling of Unit 3 at Oconee Nuclear will take place — which means the electric utility will play host to a number of additional workers.  Mikayla Kreuzberger, a Duke Energy spokeswoman, says it’s a scheduled outage for Unit #3 and will require a few weeks.  She says, “There will be heavier-than-normal traffic in the area since supplemental workers will be assisting with the outage.”
