Accomplishments

Management and Operational Safety

  • A complete set of planned management and operational control procedures that provide safety through improved operating practices was developed and implemented at the plant.

  • A plant maintenance database that helps staff predict reactor system performance was developed.

Plant Safety Evaluations

  • A comprehensive safety assessment program was used to identify design weaknesses and prioritize safety upgrades.

  • Introductory training workshops were conducted for regulators and plant personnel on safety analysis tools and application methods in support of Czech Republic infrastructure development for safety assessments.

  • A Level 1 ("internal events") probabilistic risk analysis at the plant that identified conditions that could damage the reactor was completed. Plant staff modified the plant's operating requirements to reduce the risks identified by the analysis.

  • A project has been started to evaluate operator performance during emergency operating procedure exercises on the Bohunice simulator. The results will be used to update the Dukovany safety assessment.
