ONR still waiting for GDA resolution plans from Areva/EDF on UK EPR design by I-Nuclear The UK Office for Nuclear Regulation (ONR) said it is still waiting to receive updated plans from EDF and Areva for the resolution of outstanding items, known as GDA Issues, on the EPR design review. ONR had said in February that late or poor quality deliverables from EDF and Areva for its generic design assessment (GDA) programme meant that the schedule for the original resolution plan, expected to complete this November, would not be met. At the time, ONR was indicating a two-month schedule slippage, pushing final resolution into 2013.
