1.0 PURPOSE '
This procedure provides administrative requirements to ensure that the movement of heavy loads are adequately controlled to meet NUREG-0612 requirements. A heavy load exceeds 2000 pounds at North Anna or exceeds 1600 pounds at Surry. The objective of this procedure is to provide appropriate controls to all aspects of a heavy load movement such that a defense-in-depth philosophy will minimize the possibility of a load drop. [ Commitments 3.2.1 and 3.2.2]
2.0 SCOPE 2.1 This procedure is applicable to Station personnel, including contractors, performing heavy load lifting operations.
2.2 This procedure applies to each heavy lift (e.g., equipment, tools, lumber, scaffolding, steel, concrete floor plugs) carried by handling systems identified in 6.3.1.
2.3 Loads handled by palletjacks, rollers, or other similar devices which carry the heavy load near the floor (i.e., the load will not be lifted over plant equipment or components) are exempt from the requirements of this procedure.
2.4 Some lifts are prohibited by Technical Specifications. At Nonh Anna, loads greater than 2500 l pounds shall not be lifted over spent fuel in the Spent Fuel Pool. At Surry, loads greater than j 1600 pounds shall not be lifted over spent fuel in the reactor or Spent Fuel Pool (this restriction at Surry is not applicable to lifts required for reactor assembly and disassembly or the transfer l
canal gate).
