Title | Criticality Control Report |
Event Description | At 0945 on 10/29/04, the Plant Shift Superintendent was notified that NCSE/A 3972-11 did not establish the necessary moderation controls for the sump in the C-360 elevator pit to ensure that double contingency is maintained if a UF6 release occurs in the transfer room. The sump is an unfavorable geometry. The C-360 basement transfer room is small and relatively air-tight once placed in containment resulting from a UF6 release. A credible UF6 release in the Transfer Room could consume all moisture in the room and leave gaseous UF6 available to react directly with pre-existing liquids in the elevator sump. Over an extended period of time this reaction could support a uranium concentration that results in a critical configuration. The current configuration of the sump does not prevent less than an always safe slab depth of 3.5 inches of solution in the sump.
CORRECTIVE ACTIONS: Stop fissile operations in the C-360 transfer room until the necessary NCS controls for double contingency can be ensured for the sump in the elevator pit. The regulatee has notified the NRC Resident Inspector. |
