1Q/11: During Fourth quarter of 2010 Watts Bar issued a CAFTA PRA model. The revision changed the PRA values for the MSPI Core Damage Frequency, and the unavailability and unreliability values. This change is effective first quarter 2011. The details are available in Watts Bar Basis Document.

4Q/10: Changed PRA Parameter(s). During PRA update for 1Q2011 data that was initially entered caused change in this quarter which was not intended. The data was corrected (returned to previous) and record was reapproved. No change in MSPI resulted for this quarter.

3Q/10: Changed PRA Parameter(s). During PRA update for 1Q2011 data that was initially entered caused change in this quarter which was not intended. The data was corrected (retunred to previous) and record was reapproved. No change in MSPI resulted for this quarter.

2Q/11: Risk Cap Invoked.

1Q/11: Risk Cap Invoked. PRA recalculated their models and made AFW much more risk significant. Hours lost after remodeling on MDAFW Trains A and C and TDAFW Train C caused the drop close to White.
