Marcus Chisolm, a systems engineer at Watts Bar Nuclear Plant, was recognized by Gary Mauldin, site engineering manager, for the ownership Chisolm took during the recent forced outage for the main generator stator cooling leak. Chisolm went to backshift and worked long hours with Maintenance, the vendor and others to ensure repairs were successful and on schedule. Chisolm was one of 12 Watts Bar employees honored during a Site Excellence Meeting in July for the initiative and positive behaviors they demonstrated. Site management says recognizing employees during these meetings is just one way to show appreciation for what employees do day in and day out to improve the quality of work life at Watts Bar. Corporate NPG, Sequoyah and Browns Ferry also are honoring employees during their Site Excellence meetings..
