Conversion of the ORR from 20 to 30 Mw operating level was achieved during July 1960 after a scheduled shutdown for completion of a new cooling system. Operating time reached a high of 82% during the last quarter of 1960. The first quarter of 1961 showed an operating time of 80% despite 2 shutdowns and some additional down time to repair mechanisms associated with the shim rods. Changes were made in the south engineering test facility for GCR test loops. Detailed data taken from quarterly operational reports are included. (J.R.D.)
