C O N T R A C T O R I N F O R M A T I O N E X C H A N G E Reister CE Presentation 1/98 1 Program Elements and Related Activities Rich Reister U.S. Department of Energy Office of Nuclear Energy, Science and Technology January 22, 1998

C O N T R A C T O R I N F O R M A T I O N E X C H A N G E Reister CE Presentation 1/98 2 Management and operational safety projects increase the ability of plant personnel to operate reactors safely. U.S. experts work with host-country personnel to u Establish procedures and standards for safe operations u Establish configuration management systems u Establish host-country centers for training plant personnel u Develop computerized simulators for training control room operators u Improve the plants’ quality assurance programs u Transfer up-to-date technology and training for the maintenance and nondestructive examination of plant components. Management and Operational Safety Projects

C O N T R A C T O R I N F O R M A T I O N E X C H A N G E Reister CE Presentation 1/98 3 Engineering and Technology Projects Engineering and technology projects reduce risks by upgrading the physical safety systems of nuclear power plants. U.S. experts work with host-country personnel to u Transfer tools and equipment for effective fire protection and improved radiation confinement u Undertake fire hazards analysis u Transfer the ability to manufacture safety equipment that meets international practices u Install backup power systems to ensure that plants will have the electricity to shut down in an emergency u Transfer mobile pumping units for emergency water supply

C O N T R A C T O R I N F O R M A T I O N E X C H A N G E Reister CE Presentation 1/98 4 Engineering and Technology Projects Cont. u Improve the reliability of circuit breakers and motor-operated isolation valves u Improve the reliability of electronic control-and-protection systems u Develop safety parameter display systems.

C O N T R A C T O R I N F O R M A T I O N E X C H A N G E Reister CE Presentation 1/98 5 Plant Safety Assessment Projects Plant safety assessment projects improve the abilities of designers, operators, and regulators to identify risks and set priorities for safety upgrades. The United States is u Training host-country personnel to conduct risk assessments u Providing technical support for plant-specific safety assessments u Transferring computer analysis codes to support the assessments u Working with host-country specialists to develop a performance reliability database for Soviet-designed reactors.

C O N T R A C T O R I N F O R M A T I O N E X C H A N G E Reister CE Presentation 1/98 6 Fuel Cycle Safety Projects Fuel cycle safety projects improve the handling, moving, and storing of reactor fuel and the operation of fuel-cycle facilities. The United States is involved in three efforts: u Transferring equipment and training to establish a dry-cask storage system for spent fuel at Ukraine’s Zaporizhzhya plant u Working with Ukraine to develop an in-country system for managing spent fuel u Transferring a computer code for safety analysis for use at a Hungarian dry-storage system.

C O N T R A C T O R I N F O R M A T I O N E X C H A N G E Reister CE Presentation 1/98 7 Nuclear Safety Regulatory and Institutional Framework Projects U.S. experts are working with Ukrainian and Russian regulatory authorities to develop a strong legal framework for regulating Soviet-designed nuclear power plants. The objective is to promote u Strong, independent regulatory bodies with the capabilities to regulate nuclear activities u Host-country adherence to international nuclear safety treaties and liability conventions u Protection for U.S. contractors from undue liability in foreign and U.S. courts. The U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission has the primary U.S. responsibility for this area of work.

C O N T R A C T O R I N F O R M A T I O N E X C H A N G E Reister CE Presentation 1/98 8 Chornobyl Initiatives The United States is reducing risks at Ukraine’s Chornobyl plant through four major efforts: u U.S. experts are working with Ukrainian specialists to develop technical strategies for decommissioning the Chornobyl plant. u The United States and Ukraine jointly established the Chornobyl Center for Nuclear Safety, Radioactivity Waste and Radioecology in The Chornobyl Center’s primary technical branch, the Slavutych Laboratory for International Research and Technology, is collaborating with the United States and other countries on joint technical projects for nuclear safety.

C O N T R A C T O R I N F O R M A T I O N E X C H A N G E Reister CE Presentation 1/98 9 u The United States is providing equipment and training for improved fire protection, operational safety, and maintenance at Chornobyl’s operating Unit 3 reactor. u U.S. experts are participating in an international effort to prevent collapse of the shelter around Chornobyl’s destroyed Unit 4 reactor, suppress the radioactive dust inside the shelter, protect shelter workers from radioactive and industrial hazards, and address other urgent safety concerns. Chornobyl Initiatives Cont.
