Shutdown planning steps

Long-Term Action - The preparation of additional CSAs and exemption requests for later conditions 0.e., for conations in which fed and targets, moderator, and contamination are removed or moved within K-Reactor or irradiated components are removed or moved within the L- and P-Reactor Disassembly Basins) based upon the knowledge gained from the prior steps following the standby/shutdown plans... 

Effective planning is the next step in the outage management process. Like all other maintenance activities, each task included in the outage plan must be fully planned. However, the finite time frame associated with a fixed-duration shutdown also requires effective scheduling to assure success. 

Pari 1, Making a Plan examining documentation, line identification and contents, isolation, hazards, and what if approach. Pari 2, Shutdown and Isolation steps to isolate work area, replace control valve, and reopen line. 

An operations manual should describe how to run the building systems. The plan should provide a detailed step-by-step procedure covering operation from start-up to shutdown. This document, an essential reference for day-to-day activities, will be a useful training document for new employees. A vital part of this plan should be a compilation of all available manufacturers literature and manuals. 

Status of nuclear power and decontamination studies in the UK is described. Commercial operation of Sizewell Unit B is planned to begin in early 1994. The Nuclear Electric strategy for the development of nuclear power is to pursue the twin Sizewell Unit C station as the next step. The Berkeley Magnox station has been permanently shutdown. At Berkeley, there are eight boilers on each reactor. Because of the massive size and volume of Magnox boilers, decontamination studies focused on tests with cheap and simple reagents formic acid was chosen due to the results of these studies.
