Dominion Response
Dominion established a multidiscipline team to respond to the event Dominion offered equipment, material and our knowledge from Millstone Unit 1 to the Japanese nuclear industry
Millstone Unit 1, which was shut down permanently in 1998, is similar to the damaged units at the Fukushima Daiichi power station in Japan
Followed the guidance provided by INPO Coordinated with our industry peers
Establishing controls to identify and protect systems and equipment required to maintain the functions of SFP decay heat removal and inventory control
For on-line periods when the time for the SFP to reach 200 degrees Fahrenheit upon loss of normal cooling is less than 72 hours.
Establishing, for all plant conditions, the time for the North Anna and Surry SFPs to reach 200 degrees F in the event that normal cooling is lost.
This time is intended for information purposes only in case a sustained loss of SFP cooling or inventory occurs. Dominion will verify the adequacy of station abnormal operating procedures (AOPs) for responding to the loss of SFP cooling and/or inventory. R
Revising station emergency operating procedures (EOPs) to include a precautionary statement that SFP level and temperature should be monitored.
TI 2515/184
Assessed the availability of severe accident management guidelines (SAMGs), how these guidelines are updated and how plants train their personnel on the guidelines.
Require GE Mark I & Mark II BWRs to have hardened vents Require plants to have reasonable backup emergency equipment protection Require plants to have sufficient safety-related instrumentation to monitor SFPs Require plants to have earthquake-resistant and easily accessible measures for spraying water into SFPs Revise regulations to require nuclear plants to reevaluate hazards from flooding and seismic events every 10 yrs Revise regulations to ensure equipment, procedures, & training is in place to support a loss power event for a minimum of 8 hrs and to maintain safe operation or bring it to a safe shutdown within 72 hrs for the reactors and SFPs Revise emergency preparedness procedures to enhance safety for sites with multiple reactors at one location Increase inspections of seismic and flood protection equipment Require plants to have spent fuel pool back-up water supplies sources & plans
In Closing
Protection of the health and safety of the public is at the forefront of Dominions nuclear operations The company demonstrates the highest levels of safety and reliability in operating its nuclear stations Dominion and its industry peers will continue to share information and will work to learn from the events in Japan Dominion, the industry and federal regulators will assess lessons learned and incorporate additional actions that can be taken to enhance our readiness to respond to severe accidents
