NRC NEWS U.S. NUCLEAR REGULATORY COMMISSION Office of Public Affairs, Region I 475 Allendale Road, King of Prussia, Pa. 19406 E-mail: opa1@nrc.gov Site: http://www.nrc.gov No. I-08-018 April 3, 2008
Contact:
Diane Screnci, 610/337-5330 Neil Sheehan, 610/337-5331 NRC TO DISCUSS ANNUAL ASSESSMENT FOR LIMERICK NUCLEAR PLANT AT PUBLIC MEETING SCHEDULED FOR APRIL 10 IN ROYERSFORD, PA.
The results of the Nuclear Regulatory Commissions annual safety performance assessment for the Limerick nuclear power plant will be discussed at a public meeting on Thursday, April 10. The session is scheduled to begin at 5:30 p.m. at the Limerick Energy Information Center, 218 Longview Road, Royersford, Pa.
Limerick is a twin-reactor plant located in Limerick Township (Montgomery County),
Pa., and operated by Exelon Generation Co., LLC.
Prior to the conclusion of the meeting, NRC staff will be available to answer questions from the public on the plants performance, as well as the agencys oversight of the facility.
Through a combination of inspection findings and performance indicators, we are able to develop a comprehensive picture of how nuclear power plants are performing with regard to safety, said NRC Region I Administrator Samuel J. Collins. As part of our commitment to make the findings of our reviews accessible to the public, we hold meetings near each plant once a year to share the details of those assessments. We look forward to the opportunity on April 10th to present that information for the Limerick nuclear power plant.
The annual assessment letter for Limerick is available on the NRC web site at:
http://www.nrc.gov/NRR/OVERSIGHT/ASSESS/LETTERS/lim_2007q4.pdf . The notice for the meeting, with agenda attached, is available in the NRCs Agencywide Documents Access and Management System (ADAMS) under accession number ML080850671. ADAMS is accessible at: http://www.nrc.gov/reading-rm/adams/web-based.html . Help in using ADAMS is available via the NRCs Public Document Room at 1-800-397-4209 or 301-415-4737, or by e-mail at PDR@NRC.GOV .
Overall, the Limerick plant operated safely during 2007. When considering nuclear power plant performance, the NRC uses color-coded performance indicators and inspection findings. The colors start with green and then increase to white, yellow or red, commensurate with the safety significance of the issues involved.
At the conclusion of last year, there were no performance indicators for Limerick that were other than green and no inspection findings that were greater than green. Therefore, the plant will receive the baseline, or routine, level of inspections for the remainder of 2008.
Routine inspections are carried out by the two NRC Resident Inspectors assigned to the plant and by inspection specialists from the agencys Region I Office in King of Prussia, Pa.
Among the areas of performance at Limerick to be inspected this year by NRC specialists are activities associated with radiological safety, emergency preparedness, and problem identification and resolution. In addition, the NRC will conduct inspections on the preoperational testing and initial loading of the plants dry cask storage facility for spent fuel.
Current performance information for Limerick Unit 1 is available on the NRC web site at: http://www.nrc.gov/NRR/OVERSIGHT/ASSESS/LIM1/lim1_chart.html . Current performance information for Limerick Unit 2 is available on the NRC web site at:
http://www.nrc.gov/NRR/OVERSIGHT/ASSESS/LIM2/lim2_chart.html .
