PERFORMANCE HIGHLIGHTS DURING 2005:

4 Pickering B’s four reactor units generated Save 13.75 terawatt hours of electricity. This was almost 13 per cent of the total OPG generation for the year and a 10 per cent increase over 2004’s output for the station. 4 Two Pickering B nuclear units were among

the top 10 best performing CANDUs, of the Pickering Nuclear 39 CANDU units worldwide, world last year. 4 Pickering A’s production for 2005 was 3.57 TWh, an increase of 9.5 per cent over 2004. This included production from Unit 1 which returned to commercial service in November. 4 Pickering A was awarded its first five-year operating licence by the Canadian Nuclear Safety Commission (in the past only two-year license were granted). 4 Both Pickering A and B were well within the top 25 per cent of industry counterparts in two important safety measurements, reflecting our commitment to reducing the number and severity of workplace injuries.

PICKERING NUCLEAR CONTINUED TO MAKE ITS PRESENCE FELT IN THE COMMUNITY. IN 2005: Pre-Season 4 We announced a major investment of $10 million, over five years, in the University of Ontario Institute of Technology to help ensure the best-prepared candidates are available to OPG and the energy industry in the future. 4 We participated in the creation of the Durham Strategic Energy Alliance which is dedicated to the advancement of energy solutions and initiatives. 4 In 2005, as part of OPG’s annual charity campaign, Pickering Nuclear employees donated almost $600,000 to charities and local organizations.

News Advertiser photographer’s work now on display at two-part exhibit

By Christy Chase Staff Editor DURHAM — Stories about women are central to a new exhibit at Whitby’s Station Gallery. The Breast Drum Project by Marlene Hilton Moore, a former Whitby resident and artist, is a combination of sculpture, video installation and sound, inspired by the term “beating one’s breast.” The sound sculpture is in the form of a 5-foot-5-high breast made of steel and bronze, with a three-foot diame- ter moosehide drum suspended in its back. The exhibit features the stories of women across Canada, collected over six years by the artist. “The stories cross an amazing spec- trum of experience and reality,” Hilton Moore said in a paper about the project. “It reveals the poetry, potency, pride and affirmation of the lives of these women.” The women’s voices are reflected in the sound of the drum “I’m really looking forward to the ex- hibit,” said Donna Raetsen-Kemp, ex- ecutive director of the gallery. “It’s an exciting exhibit. I think it’s going to be very evocative.” Running alongside the Breast Drum Project is Drum Works: World Sounds, featuring percussion instruments from around the world and artwork too.
