## Data quality

- The current 714.9 MW nameplate figure is higher than Fluor’s 620 MW 2002 project description; the cited records do not establish a specific capacity-expansion project, so the difference should not be treated as documented expansion. Generator records report no completed uprate or derate, and no separate retirement or repowering milestone is identified in the cited records. FirstEnergy is identified as owner in an Allegheny Construction project record, while Fluor identifies Duke Energy North America as developer and contract client.
