ANNUAL OPERATING REPORT of the TEXAS A&M UNIVERSITY AGN-201M TRAINING REACTOR NRC LICENSE R-23 JUNE 1,2008 - MAY 31, 2009 DEPARTMENT OF NUCLEAR ENGINEERING TEXAS A&M UNIVERSITY College Station, Texas 77843 - 3133
- 1.
SUMMARY
This report is intended to detail the pertinent activities related to the Texas A&M University AGN-201 M training facility operated by the Department of Nuclear Engineering during the period of 1 June 2008 until 31 May 2009. The contents of this report are intended to comply with the requirements of 10CFR50 section 50.59(b) and Appendix A of the Technical Specifications for this facility under license R-23.
The main function of this facility is to provide an operating nuclear system to be used as a research too, to support the requirements of Nuclear Engineering courses and for operator training as well as preventive maintenance. During this reporting period, the AGN-201 reactor was not run by facility. The console was completed and all maintenance that could be done without coming to power was completed. Dr. W. D.
Reece was appointed Reactor Manager in January 2009 and after examination he received a SRO license from the NRC. With this license the rods were reloaded into the core.
