Mr. Stanley,
Do you mind answering these questions.

Subject: [Pwrrm] Electronic Benchmarking - Fuel Handling Issues
We apologize for the lengthy list, but we're trying get the year
started off right and wrap-up from a late fall outage.
Fort Calhoun Station
Reactor Engineering is looking to benchmark a few items
1. Do your stations fuel handling machines require fall protection?
[Stanley, William S (TMI)] Yes, while getting on or off the bridge.
Don't need fall protection once actually on the bridge, unless there is
a need to climb off the normal walking paths (to check brakes and
cables, for example).
a. If yes, what measures are taken? Netting, harnesses,
etc.[Stanley, William S (TMI)] Life vests or climbing harnesses may be
used to get to the bridge. No nets
b. If using netting, where is it attached?[Stanley, William S
(TMI)] N/A
c. If using fall protection, where are the tie-offs?[Stanley,
William S (TMI)] Tie-off for the climbing harness is a cable along the
walkway to the bridge. When climbing on the bridge, tie-off is to
bridge structure.
2. What are you requirements for fuel movement in the Spent Fuel
Pool?
d. Continuous communications with Control Room? If yes, SRO, RO.,
Other.[Stanley, William S (TMI)] Fuel movement in SFP requires initial
approval by the Control Room, but NOT continuous communication during
movement. During refueling (offload/reload), the SF bridge crew is in
continuous communication w/ the FH SRO, who is stationed in the Reactor
Building on the Main Fuel Handling Bridge, and the Control Room (RO) who
is directing the move sequence.
e. Do you require oversight on the spent fuel handling machine
(SRO, RO, Other)?[Stanley, William S (TMI)] For "isolated" SFP
operations, SRO supervises movements.
f. Is your procedure Continuous Use, Information Use or Reference
Use?[Stanley, William S (TMI)] Continuous use.
g. Do you utilize Vendors? If so, what additional oversight is
required?[Stanley, William S (TMI)] During refueling outages, bridges
are operated by mix of vendor and company personnel (company personnel
are part of the Reactor Services group, who travel from plant to plant
for outages). Company personnel provide oversight.
3. What type of underwater lights do you use for normal Spent Fuel
Pool Lighting?
h. Style: drop light or mounted[Stanley, William S (TMI)] Mounted
on the wall
i. Vendor:[Stanley, William S (TMI)] ROS
j. How many:[Stanley, William S (TMI)] Enough to see all fuel
assemblies in the SFP
k. Spacing:[Stanley, William S (TMI)] about 25 feet apart
l. Ballasts: above water or submerged?[Stanley, William S (TMI)]
Submerged
4. What type of underwater lights do you use for normal Reactor
Cavity Lighting?
m. Style: drop light or mounted[Stanley, William S (TMI)] Temporary
mounted lights above core, drop lights at the bottom of the core resting
on the core plate.
n. Vendor:[Stanley, William S (TMI)] Unknown
o. How many:[Stanley, William S (TMI)] Two mounted above, one or
two in the bottom
p. Spacing:[Stanley, William S (TMI)] Mounted lights above core
are 180 deg apart
q. Ballasts: above water or submerged?[Stanley, William S (TMI)]
submerged.
5. What type of underwater lights do you use for supplemental
lighting? If Necessary.
r. If so what would require the additional lighting?
s. Style: drop light or mounted[Stanley, William S (TMI)] on
underwater camera poles
t. Vendor:[Stanley, William S (TMI)] (camera)
u. How many:[Stanley, William S (TMI)] typically dual light
v. Spacing:
w. Ballasts: above water or submerged?[Stanley, William S (TMI)]
submerged.
