Abstract: The Molikpaq ice loading event of April 12,1986 has been considered by many to be an anomaly and, consequently, has been the subject of much discussion, analysis, and controversy over the past eight years. In contrast, this paper demonstrates that such an event was to be expected under low level ice loading and was indeed predicted as early as 1982 during generic analyses ofthe unit. The paper illustrates this point primarily by referring to documents written prior to the event.
