Diane Screnci, 610/337-5330 E-mail: opa1@nrc.gov Neil Sheehan, 610/337-5331 NRC TO HOLD PUBLIC MEETING ON APRIL 28 IN SHIPPINGPORT, PA.,
TO DISCUSS ANNUAL ASSESSMENT OF BEAVER VALLEY NUCLEAR PLANT Nuclear Regulatory Commission staff will hold a public meeting on Thursday, April 28, regarding the agencys annual assessment of safety performance for the Beaver Valley nuclear power plant during 2010.
The meeting is scheduled to begin at 6 p.m. at the Shippingport Community and Municipal Building, at 164 State Road 3016 in Shippingport. Prior to the sessions conclusion, there will be an opportunity for members of the public to ask questions of the NRC staff regarding the plants performance, as well as the NRCs oversight of the facility.
Beaver Valley, which is the site of two operating pressurized-water reactors, is located in Shippingport (Beaver County). It is owned and operated by FirstEnergy Nuclear Operating Co.
Our Annual Assessment reviews allow us to step back and gauge whether the nuclear power plants we regulate are on the right track in terms of performance and adhering to the highest levels of safety, NRC Region I Administrator Bill Dean said. Once weve completed these evaluations, we reach out to the public to share that information and to receive their feedback at a location near each plant. We welcome and value these exchanges.
The NRC utilizes a combination of color-coded inspection findings and performance indicators to measure plant performance. The colors start with green, representing very low safety significance, and increase to white, yellow or red, commensurate with the significance of the issues involved.
Overall, Beaver Valley operated safely during 2010. At the conclusion of last year, as assessed by the NRC Reactor Oversight Process, there were no performance indicators for the plant that were other than Green and no inspection findings that were Greater than Green.
Therefore, for the remainder of 2011, Beaver Valley will continue to receive the very detailed inspection regime used by the NRC for plants that are operating well.
Routine inspections are carried out by two NRC Resident Inspectors assigned to the plant and by inspection specialists from the agencys Region I Office in King of Prussia, Pa. In 2010, the NRC devoted approximately 4,600 hours0.00694 days <br />0.167 hours <br />9.920635e-4 weeks <br />2.283e-4 months <br /> to inspection of the facility and related activities, including three major team inspections. Among the areas at Beaver Valley being inspected this year are emergency preparedness, radiological safety and the plants problem identification and resolution program.
The agency issues its review of performance at specific plants twice a year. Inspection findings and performance indicators are also updated on the NRCs web site, www.nrc.gov, each quarter. Following the release of the annual performance reviews every March, the public is provided with an opportunity to discuss the results. The meetings, which are held in the vicinity of the plant, are in keeping with the NRCs commitment to transparency and openness with regard to its activities.
