Impact Description"Initial testing for Corbicula as required by IE Bulletin 81-03 costs untold numbers of dollars. If one assumes an outage cost of $50,000 per hour per 1,000 megawatt unittimes roughly 79 operative units in the U.S., plus 50-60 under construction, these costs alone would be $3.5 million for the first evaluation and perhaps $1 million in the plants under construction.
