## Abstract

As part of the Embalse Nuclear Power Plant (CANDU-6) refurbishment, the Nuclear Regulatory Authority of Argentina (ARN) has developed a full plant thermo-hydraulic model with point kinetics. Using the RELAP5 mod.3.3 Patch4 thermal-hydraulic code, the model simulates accidents within the design basis. This model is being used to perform an independent review of the safety analysis submitted by the designer and operator to the regulatory body. It would also be used as a tool for understanding plant dynamic behavior. The model developed by the ARN includes most of the hydraulic systems and control logic from the original design; the planned design changes for refurbishment are implemented in a more recent version of the model. To validate the model regarding its response to transients, a postulated initiating event (PIE) was modeled and simulated, and the results obtained were compared with recorded data of that particular event which took place in the NPP in 2007. The event consists of a spurious turbine trip leading to a rapid power reduction (stepback) to 49% of full power. This reduction was the only boundary condition imposed to the model. The purpose of this comparison is to verify consistency between important plant parameters, thermal-hydraulic model predictions and recorded data. Only the first 15 minutes of the transient were simulated. It is shown that the evolutions of some given variables are similar to those observed in the NPP. Also, the results obtained indicated that modifications should be performed to improve the model, especially regarding control components for getting better adjustment of plant data.

# NRC Chairman Jackson to Hold News Briefing in Moab Following Visit to Atlas  Uranium Mill Site

----

----

RIV: 98-44

December 14, 1998

**NRC CHAIRMAN JACKSON TO HOLD NEWS BRIEFINGIN MOAB FOLLOWING VISIT TO ATLAS URANIUM MILL SITE**

Dr. Shirley Ann Jackson, chairman of the U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission, and Commissioner Jeffrey S. Merrifield, will hold a news briefing in Moab, Utah, following their visit to the site of Atlas Corporation's Moab Mill, a closed uranium mill, on Thursday, December 17.

The news briefing will be begin at 3:30 p.m. in the Grand County Council Chambers at 125 E. Center Street, Moab.

The NRC is considering a proposal by the Atlas Corporation to reclaim tailings from the operation of Moab Mill at their current location on the mill site, near the Colorado River three miles north of Moab. Chairman Jackson and Commissioner Merrifield are touring the site to get a first-hand perspective on the issue and to confer with officials of Atlas, Grand County and the State of Utah.

Dr. Jackson was appointed to the Nuclear Regulatory Commission by President Clinton in May 1995, and became chairman in July of that year. She holds a Ph.D. in theoretical elementary particle physics from Massachusetts Institute of Technology. Dr. Jackson regularly visits nuclear power plants and other facilities regulated by the NRC.

Mr. Merrifield, the newest member of the Commission, was sworn in as a Commissioner on October 23, 1998. Prior to assuming that post, he served as a senior counsel and legislative assistant to two United States Senators and as a Washington, D.C. attorney, specializing in environmental and regulatory issues. He holds a Doctor of Jurisprudence degree from Georgetown University Law Center.

## Abstract

In 1992, the American Society for Testing and Materials (ASTMA) initiated a Round Robin on Reconstitution (RRR) to contribute to the review of ASTM E1253 Guide on Charpy specimen reconstitution. The purpose of this RRR is to study the influence of parameters, such as the reconstitution technique, the insert length, the hammer tup geometry and the material. Ten laboratories participated in the RRR and performed Charpy specimen reconstitution on unirradiated material according to a predefined test matrix with both 10- and 14-umn inserts. All Charpy impact tests were conducted by the U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission sponsored Heavy-Section Steel Irradiation Program. Comparison of the absorbed energy and lateral expansion before and after reconstitution demonstrates that the loss due to reconstitution can be characterized by the combination of the insert length, the welding method, and the tup geometry used. In general, stud and upset-butt welding combined with the ASTM tup show the highest difference in energy whereas electron-beam welding with the ISO tup indicates the least. The variations among welding techniques and laboratories are also described. It is concluded that reconstitution does not affect any characteristic loads in the instrumented load-time traces, and that the 10-mm insert length should not be used in the upper shelf or mid-transition temperature region.

Q.S.,

Defendant and Appellant.

C075882

(Super. Ct. Nos. JV12441, 

JV12443)

Father appeals from a juvenile court order terminating dependency jurisdiction 

over the minor children, and exit orders granting mother sole legal and physical custody 

of the children and limiting father to supervised visitation. Father notes this appeal is a 

“protective appeal” intended to preserve issues raised in a prior appeal pending before 

this court. Rather than write a new opening brief, father incorporates by reference the 

opening and reply briefs he filed in that related appeal. (Rules of Court, rule 

8.200(a)(5).) 

Father’s sole contention in this appeal is that the orders from which he appeals are 

“legally unsupportable because the factual basis for those orders, and the subsequent 
2

orders, which removed the children from his legal and physical custody, denied 

reunification services to him, and allowed only supervised visits between him and his 

children, were not supported by substantial evidence and/or were an abuse of discretion, 

for the reasons specified in his opening and reply briefs in the related appeal C074723.” 

In our opinion in In re J.S. et al. (Oct. 17, 2014, C074723) [nonpub. opn.]), we concluded

(1) substantial evidence supports the juvenile court orders removing the children from 

father’s custody and denying father reunification services, and (2) father forfeited his 

claim that the juvenile court abused its discretion in reducing his visitation. Based on our 

opinion in the related appeal, we affirm the juvenile court orders terminating dependency 

jurisdiction and the exit orders granting mother sole legal and physical custody and 

limiting father to supervised visitation.

DISPOSITION

The orders of the juvenile court are affirmed.
