AI summary
- The Nova Scotia Utility And Review Board approved Nova Scotia Power Inc request (CI #39663) for $648,220 to refurbish the turbine governor at Trenton Unit 5 (TRE5), classified as an Unforeseen and Unbudgeted (Capital Expenditures U&U) work order under $1 million.
- The governor failed while in operation in March 2010; repairs were completed prior to Board approval, as they were necessary to return the unit to service.

- The decision was issued by Member Roberta J. Clarke, Q.C. on September 30, 2010, following NSPI's filing received electronically on September 2, 2010 (Document No. 182012).
