    Hinkley Point News from EDF Energy July 2009 Site Nomination Update EDF Energy recently nominated to Government an area of land adjacent to the existing Hinkley Point nuclear power stations for the development of new nuclear power. The aerial plan shows the full extent of the land that has been nominated. Not all of this land will be required for the development of new nuclear power, and not all of it will necessarily be needed during the construction process. Nominated Land Area Detailed feasibility and design work is currently underway to determine the precise location of the power station and associated buildings. This work will also determine the exact boundaries of the land needed for the construction period. Land used temporarily during the construction process will be restored afterwards. EDF Energy has also nominated sites for Area of land nominated by EDF Energy for new nuclear build new nuclear build in Dungeness (Kent), Hartlepool (Teesside), Heysham Further details of our nomination of development can be obtained from (Lancashire) and Sizewell (Suffolk). land for new nuclear power www.nuclearpowersiting.decc.gov.uk .

  • Position Regarding Future of Hartlepool Power Station November 2017
    Position regarding future of Hartlepool Power Station November 2017 This position statement has been prepared based on information available on EDF Energy’s website, NuLeAF (Nuclear Legacy Advisory Forum) website and information provided from officers within Hartlepool Borough Council. Background The nuclear power station in Hartlepool is managed by EDF Energy; it is capable of supplying energy to over 2 million homes in the UK. The power station started energy generation in 1983 and the estimated end of generation date is 2024. The current site employs approximately 530 people full time and a further 200 full time contract partners. Many of the nuclear power stations currently in operation across the UK are coming to the end of their operational lifespan and nuclear investment plan is underway. Whilst the current end of generation dates of these sites are not set in stone, there is probably little scope for any significant further extension of the operating lifetime of the power stations. EDF Energy is currently developing three new nuclear power stations (Hinkley Point C, Sizewell C and Bradwell B). More will be required in the future to replace aging power stations. Decommissioning In relation to decommissioning of the site, EDF gave the following overview of the three key phases at a recent NuLeAF meeting has drawn up decommissioning plans which divide into three phases: 1. Pre-closure transition and defueling (the defueling period is likely to take 3-4 years). 2. Site surveillance and Care & Maintenance 3. Reactor decommissioning and final site clearance. From start to finish this covers a period of approximately 100 years.

With the likes of Richard Attenborough or Jeremy Vine, Hawking rose to the status of documentary voice and British national public treasure. He also helped build bridges between science and the British public both through books and documentaries. The latter in particular have held a place of pride in the popularising techniques regarding the sometimes-esoteric world of natural or experimental sciences. As a television sub-genre, documentaries are distinct from news-providing or fiction programmes but borrow elements from both. For Bill Nichols, “The appearance of documentary involves the combination of three pre- existing elements--photographic realism, narrative structure, and modernist fragmentation—along with a new emphasis on the rhetoric of social persuasion.”1 It means that a documentary is based on chronicling the “real” through images and sounds, mostly with an activist intent.

  • Sellafield What to Do in a Radiation Emergency Booklet
    WHAT TO DO IN AN Emergency At Sellafield This information is prepared for everyone within the Detailed Emergency Planning Zone and the Inner Emergency Planning Zone for the Sellafield Site. EMERGENCY INFORMATION Listen to local radio. Monitor social media platforms. Dial the Sellafield Emergency Information Line on 29th September 2021 It is important that you study this booklet carefully and keep it in a safe and prominent place. WHAT TO DO IN AN EMERGENCY Introduction • This booklet gives advice on what to do in the event of an emergency at the Sellafield Site. • Sellafield is Europe’s largest single nuclear site and stores and handles industrial size quantities of radioactive material. Although unlikely, an emergency could occur involving material being stored and processed on the Site. In addition, Sellafield also holds a large inventory of other hazardous substances and again although unlikely an emergency could occur involving the chemicals being utilised on the Site. • It must be stressed that the possibility of such emergencies occurring is remote and that the design and operation of all plants on the site are independently monitored by the Office for Nuclear Regulation (ONR), Health and Safety Executive (HSE) and Environment Agency (EA). • Current assessments of the radiological hazards indicate that areas between 6.1km & 8km from the centre of the Sellafield Site could be the most likely areas to be directly affected during and following a radiation emergency, this area is referred to as the Detailed Emergency Planning Zone (DEPZ). To see its geographical extent please see map A (pg13) & C (pg20). • In addition, other assessments of the chemical hazards indicate that an area up to 2km from the centre of the Sellafield Site could be the most likely area to be directly affected during and following a chemical emergency, this area is referred to as the Inner Emergency Planning Zone (IEPZ).

  • Movement of Radioactive Material Sellafield Site
    Proceedings of the 18th International Symposium on the Packaging and Transportation of Radioactive Materials PATRAM 2016 September 18-23, 2016, Kobe, Japan Paper No. 3034 Movement of Radioactive Material Sellafield Site Maz Hussain Sellafield Ltd., United Kingdom. Abstract Background The UK nuclear decommissioning priority is to reduce risk and hazard and to deliver the clean-up mission cost effectively. This is particularly relevant at Sellafield where the Legacy Ponds and Silos pose the most significant challenges. The availability of safe packaging for the movement and storage on the Sellafield site is a key enabler to meet the NDA mission for safe interim storage ahead of its subsequent treatment, packaging and final storage to a Geologic Disposal Facility (GDF). There are a significant number of packages and package design types operating on the Sellafield site. Some packages are licensed to the IAEA regulations for safe transport and others comply only with the Sellafield site specific requirements. Introduction Packages to and from the Sellafield site need to comply with the IAEA regulations for safe transport and must meet the Sellafield site requirements. However, the IAEA regulations do not apply to packages within a licensed site. For on-site safe package operations compliance is required against Sellafield site specific procedures, standards and guidance. Package Management System There are a significant number and types of package transfers routinely undertaken safely on the Sellafield site. The packages range from small (18Kg) hand held sample castles to large complex (100Te) packages some with in-built gamma gates, mechanical interlocks and hoisting drive mechanisms. The Sellafield Package Management System (SPMS) efficiently manages package operations and includes for asset register, package tracking, operational history and maintenance.
