LACEY TOWNSHIP – Oyster Creek Generating Station automatically shut down Friday night, a station official confirmed Saturday.
At 9:05 p.m., the station suffered an electrical fault in one of its two main transformers, which are used to convert Oyster Creek’s output for use on the gird that serves the region.
The automatic shutdown occurred safely and without incident, according to David Benson, a spokesman for the plant.
