Introductions
z Bob Duncan, Director - Site Operations z Eric McCartney, Plant General Manager z Ed Wills, Manager - Operations z Sean OConnor, Manager - Engineering z Kelvin Henderson, Manager - Maintenance z Dave Corlett, Supervisor - Licensing /
Regulatory Programs
Plant General Manager Eric McCartney
Continuity of Leadership z Topics of discussion today Continued confidence in leadership team Continued focus on nuclear safety
Rebuilding the Team z Early retirement program (VERP)
On-going VERP meetings Process for knowledge transfer (PM-23)
Domino effect for filling positions created three times the number of changes z Teambuilding projects Understanding diversity Community projects
Rebuilding the Team z The succession plan was successful Vacancies were filled quickly z Assuring continuity Critical positions were identified z Leadership development Filled Support Services manager early Personnel development from orientation through leadership development
Nuclear safety philosophy z Fix the plant z Focus on fundamentals Operator knowledge Maintenance ownership Engineering ownership z Risk reduction:
Plant modifications During shutdown, protecting the running train of RHR vs. having a protected train
Operations Ed Wills
Operator Pipeline z Selection criteria for new operators z Orientation z Career path begins as non-licensed operator z Direct SRO candidates z 31 people are in training
Four Focus Areas z Core Business Fundamentals Technical curiosity Maintaining safety margin Leading the station z People z Status control z Backlog
Operator Academic Performance z Classroom performance is monitored z Periodic training review boards z Academic review boards if intervention is needed at the individual level
Engineering Sean OConnor
Nuclear Safety Philosophy z Issue ownership System health Technical leadership Product quality Fixing the plant
Safety System Performance z High Head Safety Injection Most unavailability was planned Modifications are the solution CSIP oil sampling modification is complete CSIP transfer switch is planned for RFO-13
Participation with industry peers z Alloy 600 inspections z Meggitt cable testing z Emergency diesel generator governor coupling
Fire Protection strategy z SSD Validation Project Used on-line PRA to select most important modifications for RFO-13 z Overall layered approach Compensatory measures Control of combustibles Rigorous testing z NFPA 805 transition
FP Related Modifications z Completed Modifications CCW valve re-power in RFO-12(RCP seal cooling)
AFW valve re-power Ventilation dampers RWST Level Indication on-line portion z Modifications planned for RFO-13 Install manual transfer switch for CSIP VCT valve rewire (Meggitt Cable)
Re-Power 1CC-252 (RCP seal cooling)
Cable protection for 1CH-279
Hemyc/MT Fire Wrap z NRC tests in 2005 identified concern for fire resistance capability of Hemyc and MT wrap z NRC test used commercially available fabric which is not used at HNP z Progress Energy conducted additional testing using wrap installed at HNP Results showed that joints were not exposed due to fabric shrinkage Applying the lessons learned from Meggitt cable testing program
Planning for the future z Engineering succession plan worked Supported site leadership needs Diversity in new engineers Retooling the training program TPC Training needs Leadership development
Maintenance Kelvin Henderson
Maintenance Ownership z Drivers Equipment reliability ZTEF Culture Shift z Core Team Composition
Maintenance Ownership z Vision Statement Nuclear Maintenance Professionals committed to working together, interfacing with other work groups, using personal involvement, knowledge, and skills, to take equipment reliability to the highest level.
z Actions taken to date
Results z Leak reduction Focus on nuclear and personal safety Systems integrity - Primary and Secondary Repair and prevention 1RC-106
Corrective Action Program Dave Corlett
Direction of CAP z Line organization ownership z Fleet consistency for trending z Direction - Predict the next event Upgraded the CAP program owner position to ensure a high talent level Improve the analysis of data to become more predictive in nature
