Ex-Plant Materials Harvesting Workshop March 7-8, 2017 USNRC HQ Rockville, MD, USA
Meeting Logistics
- Workshop will be held at NRCs Three White Flint North building
- Directly adjacent to the White Flint Metro station
- Nearest hotel within walking distance: Bethesda North Marriott Hotel &
Conference Center
- Workshop is a non-public meeting to encourage open discussion
- Presentations and meeting summary will be distributed among meeting participants only
- GoToMeeting webinar will be available to support additional attendees
- Webinar attendees will be primarily observers
- Limited opportunities for webinar attendee participation in discussion if time allows
- Discussion will be recorded through GoToMeeting software to aid capturing discussion in meeting summary 2
Meeting Logistics
- Presenters, please keep presentations brief and within the allotted time on the agenda
- Please limit questions following presentations to specific, clarification-type questions
- For broader discussion questions, please save and raise during discussion towards end of each session
- All presentations and meeting summary will be available on Google Drive:
https://drive.google.com/drive/folders/0B5DWMLch5YSXcnp ZZ0JOS055QUU?usp=sharing 3
Approach
- Domestic and international researchers, industry, regulators, and decommissioning companies discuss benefits and challenges with ex-plant harvesting
- Encourage sharing of lessons learned as well as areas of common interest
- Workshop consists of topical sessions with short presentations and significant time for open discussion
- Goal is to maximize engagement among meeting participants
- Scope includes any materials aging issue that could benefit from harvesting, including metals, cables, and concrete 4
Expected Outcome
- Participants become better informed and aware of the benefits and challenges associated with ex-plant harvesting
- Discussions help identify areas of common interest for harvesting to address technical data needs
- Presentations and discussions provide the starting point for a database of harvested materials and future harvesting opportunities
- Contacts are made among research organizations to allow for further discussion of specific harvesting projects
- Workshop summary documenting discussion will be distributed among participants 5
