During August, plant modifications for small-break Test L3-5 continued. The intact-loop-break piping installation is well underway and will be completed soon. Installation of the instrument spool piece was completed and advanced testing disclosed problems which have been worked and are 90% resolved. Installation of the new small-break piping path also made it necessary to fabricate and install hangers for support purposes. Work is progressing well on this effort; however, the additional time required to completion will move the L3-5 Test from a mid-to late-September test date. Major management attention has been devoted to the successful fiscal year 1980 closeout. The actual spending rate to date is still in good agreement with the current approved budgets and authorized funding levels
