POWER REACTORS 53 from USAEC headquarters and field libraries. Cleared for television. This technical film illustrates the remote repair and modification of the Homogeneous Reactor Experiment No. 2 (HRE-2) core vessel fol- lowing the formation of two holes that permitted the transfer of fuel to the blanket side of the reactor. The film shows special equipment that had to be designed for repairing the HRE-2 and the problems involved in working with the reactor, where the radiation level in the vessel was greater than 100,000 r/hr. All the work had to be performed through the blanket access, which is 3 l / 2 in. in diameter, and the core access, which is 2V 8 in. in diameter.
