fuel spill
Reinstallation of the shuttle's 352 tiles began yesterday
and workers are working around the clock.  They hope to
get up to 30 installed per day.

Decontamination of the Forward Reaction Control System
has already been completed, but 16 of the 26 thermal
blankets removed still must be replaced.

Engineers have decided to unload the nitrogen tetroxide
fuel that was loaded before the accident to filter it
for iron nitrate.
