RE: Unit 2 pool wall update 9127/05 update

  • Hosted Geri Shapiro from Senator Clinton's office today for a tour of the FSB loading bay and observation of the crack area. She understands the negligible radiological impact on public health and safety. She anticipates the Senator's requested conversation with NRC Chairman Diaz to be around earlier notification of this type of issue. Geri did say that she got an early heads up (a phone call) from someone in the NRC, well before the press release.
  • Water collection remains unchanged - 500 mi/day. Results are consistent with previous samples. The results do not point conclusively to the water being fresh from the pool or old trapped water. We expect a written position by 9/29.

We will use the RP peer group for a fleet challenge call.

  • Structural and water transport calculations are expected 9/28.
  • We are searching within the fleet for hydrology experts. Bill Eaton has helped us and we will have a fleet call when our vendor renders his written opinion.
  • The improved collection system (using a gutter) is installed. We will reinstall the plastic with it so that we do not lose water to evaporation.
  • Underwater Construction will be on site tomorrow to discuss in-pool liner inspections. We will include the previous repair area in the scope.
  • Pipe pen work orders are being written to clean the wall and then secure plastic over shrinkage cracks to determine if we are losing moisture due to evaporation.
  • OE from Salem tells us that we should confirm that the U3 drain is not clogged. Work orders are being written and the work week manager is being contacted.
  • There are existing wells in the U2 area, for example the transformer yard. We are factoring these into our options for mitigation.
  • We will start a KT analysis shortly.
