Daily Staff Notes February 24, 2004 a
Special Davis-Besse Update New Information None.
Plant status Mode 3 (hot standby) at Normal Operating Pressure/Normal Operating Temperature (2155 psig/5320F). The licensee expects to maintain the plant in these conditions until restart.
Recent and ongoing events The licensee continues to work through 16 remaining restart restraints items.
NRC activities On February 23 the Panel briefed Jim Caldwell, Jim Dyer, and Sam Collins on restart deliberations.
Upcoming meetings No public meetings are scheduled in the next two weeks.
Below is a simplified time line that describes the significant NRC and licensee activities and milestones that are necessary for NRC to authorize restart.
These tentative dates are predicated upon the licensee successfully completing NRC pre-restart activities and demonstrating acceptable operating performance. Key Agency decision points are annotated with asterisks (*) In the timeline below. The outcome of each decision point could materially alter the timing and substance of the rest of the schedule.
The details of these activities are described in three internal NRC documents: the Davis-Besse Oversight Panel Process Plan, the Davis-Besse Restart Communications Plan and the Davis-Besse Restart Punch Ust.
