Items not ready will be declared inoperable prior to the rollover. No other internal risks were identified. The criteria used for consumables is to be independent of suppliers as much as possible until March 2000. The primary external events are loss of off-site power, loss of communications, and depletion of consumables. The integrated contingency plan was approved and rehearsed on September 9, 1999.
Training is currently in progress with drill scenarios being developed.
The contingency plan team used many functional organizations for preparing contingency plans. This also identified high priority systems for contingency plan purposes. Thirty-four internal and six external contingency plans have been developed. Internal examples include controllers on the turbine micro governor, separator re-heater, LOCA margin surveillance, and feedwater pump systems. Full scope simulators are used for training and a very complete programme of training was described.
