    ARMENIA TO SUSPEND NUCLEAR PLANT DUE TO MAJOR OVERHAUL IN SEPTEMBER

    Yerevan, 21 August: The operation of the Armenian nuclear power plant
    [NPP] will be suspended at the beginning of September due to a complete
    overhaul that will be carried out there, the director-general of the
    NPP, Gagik Markosyan, has told Arminfo.

    He said that the NPP's complete overhaul would take about 85
    days. It is planned to upload nuclear fuel and inspect the nuclear
    reactor. Similar measures, unlike the annual scheduled maintenance
    work, are carried out once in four years.

    "A great amount of non-standard work is expected, the major task being
    the inspection of the nuclear reactor," the director-general said.
