NRC NEWS U.S. NUCLEAR REGULATORY COMMISSION Office of Public Affairs, Region I 475 Allendale Road, King of Prussia, Pa.

Contact:
Diane Screnci, 610/337-5330 Email: opa1@nrc.gov Neil Sheehan, 610/337-5331 NRC TO DISCUSS 2004 PERFORMANCE ASSESSMENT FOR BEAVER VALLEY NUCLEAR POWER PLANT Nuclear Regulatory Commission staff will meet with representatives of FirstEnergy Nuclear Operating Company on Wednesday, March 30, to discuss the agencys annual assessment of safety performance at the Beaver Valley nuclear power plant. The period of performance to be discussed is Jan. 1 to Dec. 31, 2004.
FirstEnergy operates the twin-reactor plant, which is located in Shippingport, Pa.
The meeting, which will be open to the public for observation, is scheduled to begin at 1 p.m. in Room 103 of the plants Training Building, located on Shippingport Road across from the Beaver Valley parking lot entrance. Before the session is adjourned, NRC staff will be available to answer questions from the public on the plants safety performance, as well as the agencys role in ensuring safe operation of the facility.
The NRC continually reviews the performance of the Beaver Valley plant and the nations other commercial nuclear power facilities, NRC Region I Administrator Samuel J. Collins said. This meeting will provide an opportunity for a discussion of our annual assessment of safety performance with the company and with local officials and residents who live near the plant. Our goal is to explain the NRC oversight process and make as much information as possible available to the public regarding our regulation of these facilities.
A letter sent from the NRC Region I Office to plant officials addresses the performance of the plant during the period and will serve as the basis for the meeting discussion. It is available on the NRC web site at: http://www.nrc.gov/NRR/OVERSIGHT/ASSESS/LETTERS/bv_2004q4.pdf . The slides for the meeting are available in the NRCs Agencywide Documents Access and Management System (ADAMS) under accession number ML050750418. ADAMS is accessible via the agencys web site at: http://www.nrc.gov/reading-rm/adams.html . Help in using ADAMS is available by contacting the NRCs Public Document Room at 1-800-397-4209 or 301-415-4737 or by e-mail at PDR@nrc.gov .
Overall, the Beaver Valley plant operated safely during the period. The NRC uses color-coded inspection findings and performance indicators to assess nuclear power plant performance. The colors start with green and then increase to white, yellow or red, commensurate with the safety significance of the issues involved. Because all of the inspection findings and performance indicators for the plant during 2004 were determined to be green, Beaver Valley will receive a baseline level of inspections during the upcoming assessment period.
Routine inspections are performed by two NRC Resident Inspectors assigned to the plant and by inspection specialists from the Region I Office in King of Prussia, Pa., and the agencys headquarters in Rockville, Md. Among the areas of plant operations to be inspected this year by NRC specialists are radiological safety, permanent plant modifications and the planned replacement of the Unit 1 steam generators and reactor vessel head.
Current performance information for Beaver Valley Unit 1 is available on the NRC web site at: http://www.nrc.gov/NRR/OVERSIGHT/ASSESS/BV1/bv1_chart.html .
Current performance information for Beaver Valley Unit 2 is available on the NRC web site at: http://www.nrc.gov/NRR/OVERSIGHT/ASSESS/BV2/bv2_chart.html .
