Oak Harbor
New Reactor Head
Email story to a friend

(Oak Harbor-AP) -- There's a new reactor head at the damaged Davis-Besse nuclear power plant.

FirstEnergy is taking delivery of a reactor cover from a Midland, Michigan, nuclear plant that was never started.

Davis-Besse has been shut down since March. The company discovered during routine maintenance that acid had eaten through the six-inch thick steel head that contains coolant in the reactor.

FirstEnergy spokesman Todd Schneider says the company hopes to have the new cover installed and the plant up and running by the end of the year.

The total repair cost will be close to 75 million dollars.
