Has anyone heard of any utility companies/power plants that have performed Y2K testing and have found that it will not be compliant by January 1, 2000?

I thought that I heard that this was the case for a Utah utility. Any information on this incident/issue would be greatly appreciated.

I've not heard of any testing failures to date that have resulted in a utility company stating that a plant (or the company itself) would not be Y2k ready by 1/1/2000. That being said, there have been significant problems found during the testing process of plants and transmission / distribution networks. Refer to www.euy2k.com/reallife.htm

The good news: These are the problems we know about. The bad news: The problems we know about don't begin to scratch the surface of the problems we don't know about.
