Duke Energy response: Filters are stored underwater until non-outage period at all three stations.
Filters are store in racks at all three stations. One station uses an underwater 9 filter storage carousel that enables transport of the group of filters in a shield .

At your site do you 1) remove and package them immediately, or 2) store them underwater until a pre-determined time (like during outage or some other scenario), and if you store filters underwater do you store them in some sort of container? Does this container store in fuel racks or is there some other design? Any information would be greatly appreciated.
