When he joined the company in 1994, Chris Murphy brought 15 years of production experience, and he was responsible for much of how the new plant (1999) was designed. He is respected as a “no-nonsense” manager, though this means that he can lose patience in meetings where people begin to digress or when no progress appears to be made. He is a “company man,” very dedicated to the company’s success, and this explains his willingness to work on the environmental committee, despite his reservations about whether or not it will actually do anything worthwhile. He believes that some environmental improvements may be necessary to meet EPA regulations, but he doesn't want such things to hurt the company's profits. He prides himself on the fact that the plant has an excellent production record, with little "down time" in the reactors. He is liked by most of the plant workers, though he drives them hard. He gets on well with the lab people, but is less popular with some of the newer administrative staff.
