SKW-MBT Management, Inc., a vendor of safety-related grout, reported a   
potential shelf-life issue for specific lots of Embeco 636 (CMTR) Grout  
under certain conditions. The vendor's re- analysis of this product      
indicates that segregation and frothing of ingredients in an unhardened  
state may occur for lot number M4-73733P0, if mixed to a fluid           
consistency. This situation may also apply to other lots made since      
June 1999:                                                               
                                                                         
                    M4-44623R9                                           
                    M4-57904V9                                           
                    M4-72073P0                                           
                    M4-73733P0                                           
                                                                         
The vendor notified its affected customers, which include domestic       
nuclear power plants at Davis-Besse, Peach Bottom, Limerick, Robinson,   
Cook, and Beaver Valley.
