The Cook nuclear power plant’s Unit 2 reactor is now back in service and online.
Unit 2 was taken offline last week due to a leak on a charging pump discharge control valve. The Cook plant says repairs are complete, and Unit 2 was reconnected to the power grid just before noon Tuesday.
The charging pump provides additional water to the unit’s reactor coolant system. Cook staff last Thursday determined the unit needed to be removed from service to safely perform the necessary work to fix the leak.
Cook says customers were not affected by the outage.
