Visit to AREVA Tech Center, Lynchburg, Virginia

On October 13, 2016, NRC staff visited the AREVA technical facilities in Lynchburg, Virginia, as

part of the series of site visits to increase awareness of the research and testing activities

undertaken by the Department of Energy and industry to support the lead subsequent license

renewal (SLR) applications. The visit focused on the non-destructive examination of vessel

internals and steam generator tubes, using realistic mock-ups. Related presentations included

details on probabilistic approaches to predicting baffle-bolt failures, mitigating component failure

through cavitation peening technology, and AREVA’s Internals Asset Management

program. Additional topics included materials characterization and testing, seismic qualification,

pump and motor service, and AREVA’s Strategic Alliance for FLEX Emergency Response

(SAFER), which coordinates off-site regional response centers for the U. S. nuclear industry in

the United States to mitigate beyond design basis external events. Slides on the AREVA

facilities and capabilities can be found here.
