San Onofre Restart quoting Albert Einstein, "Insanity:
doing the same thing over and over again and expecting different results." HAHN Baba April 3, 2013 at 11:27 pin Your comment is awaiting moderation.
Sincere Thanks to NRC Chairman, Mr. Victor Dricks, Mr. Cale Young, Mr. Ryan Lantz, Mr. Randy Hall and entire NRC Staff. Thanks to NRC posting this blog. San Onofre NRC/SCE/MHI/Public Awareness Series -by Hahn Baba NRC, INPO, CPUC, NEI and Scientists expect a responsible nuclear utility to supply safe and reliable power at a reasonable cost and not conduct unsafe experiments at the expense of public safety and charge ratepayers for its mistakes.First Strike -1992 -Decaying generator tubes helped push San Onofre's Unit 1 reactor into retirement in 1992, even though it was designed to run until 2004.Second Strike -2001 Power Uprate -To generate more power, Edison Engineers increased the steam flows and lowered the steam generator pressures, which increased vibrations, and shortened the life of Rate Payers Paid Original Steam generators.
Third Strike -2011 -SONGS Unit 3 -To generatemore power, believing that Unit 3 anti-vibration structure was built better than Unit 2, Edison Engineers tested the new supports by increasing the reactor coolant flows, steam flows and lowered the steam generator pressures, which increased vibrations, and destroyed the Rate Payers Paid brand New Replacement Steam generators.
Edison has said that because of manufacturing differences, Unit 2's generators did not suffer the extent of deep tube wear witnessed in its sister plant. Unit 2 was not operating in the test mode and did not experience fluid elastic instability because of lower reactor coolant flows, lower steam flows and higher steam generator pressures.
Unit 2 better supports and double the contact forces unproven theory is just a conjecture on the part of SCE/MHI based on hideous data, faulty computer simulations and an excuse to start defectively designed and degraded Unit 2. Unit 2 better supports and double the contact forces unproven theory is just a cheap SCE scheme to charge insurance money from MHI and more money from ratepayers.
This bogus and unconvincing theory is contested and challenged based on the available plant data and review of Dr. Pettigrew's research papers and testimony, John Large, MHI, Westinghouse and AREVA Reports.Fourth Strike -2013 -Edison officials are also preparing long-range plans under which the plant might run for years, even though some of Edison's own research has suggested tube damage could cut short its life span.Precise projections about the future are dependent on a restart -Edison engineers need to study how the reactor behaves at 70 percent power before being able to sharpen longer-range calculations.
The plant could be started then shut down, as many as five times during a trial run to assess its operation and safety. "To propose an experiment in which the damaged reactor is repeatedly turned on and off shows a disgraceful contempt for public safety," said Kendra Ulrich, a spokeswoman for the Friends of the Earth. Unit 2 restart without complete and thorough review by NRC Brilliant Engineers and Public Hearings on the basis of meeting peak summer electricity demands is an unapproved experiment and just a cheap SCE scheme to charge more money from ratepayers.
1 Last Sitike -Albert Einstein, "Any intelligent
.... can make things bigger, more complex, and more .It takes a touch of genius -and a lot of courage -to move in the opposite direction." Ted Craver needs to tell Ron, Pete, Tom, Rich, John, Mike, Vic, Doug and others to stop wasting NRC and Public's time and money and award a turnkey contract to Westinghouse and Bechtel to repair or replace both Units Steam generators.
This will be expensive, but wise long term and an excellent PR move for Ted, Ron, Pete and EIX/SCE shareholders, and will be in the best interests of NRC, INPO, NEI,- Nuclear Industry, CPUC and the Concerned Public. Of course, On SCE Federally Leased Territory, SCE can retaliate, shut up an employee, but my friends, this is America, The Greatest Country, and you cannot ignore and shut up the paying and concerned public.2
