The proposed TS change (TS 03-16) will revise the limiting condition for operation for TS Section 3.7.9, "Ultimate Heat Sink." The maximum essential raw cooling water (ERCW) temperature limit associated with Surveillance Requirement (SR) 3.7.9.1 will be annotated with a note allowing an occasional increase from 85 degrees Fahrenheit (0F) to 880F. This proposed change is based on recent evaluations of the ERCW system and the UHS functions and maximum temperatures that will satisfy the associated safety functions. In addition, an administrative change is proposed to clarify the maximum allowable internal containment pressure. Corresponding TS Bases changes are also included for the temperature increase for UHS and the containment pressure clarification including a minor change in the maximum calculated containment pressure resulting from the increased UHS temperature. 1--~56 Pa0ted.]n ,Ededpa U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission Page 2 APR 0 7 2004 TVA discussed its plans for this proposal in a meeting with NRC staff in August 2003.

  • Analyzing the Energy Industry in United States
    +44 20 8123 2220 [email protected] Analyzing the Energy Industry in United States https://marketpublishers.com/r/AC4983D1366EN.html Date: June 2012 Pages: 700 Price: US$ 450.00 (Single User License) ID: AC4983D1366EN Abstracts The global energy industry has explored many options to meet the growing energy needs of industrialized economies wherein production demands are to be met with supply of power from varied energy resources worldwide. There has been a clearer realization of the finite nature of oil resources and the ever higher pushing demand for energy. The world has yet to stabilize on the complex geopolitical undercurrents which influence the oil and gas production as well as supply strategies globally. Aruvian's R'search’s report – Analyzing the Energy Industry in United States - analyzes the scope of American energy production from varied traditional sources as well as the developing renewable energy sources. In view of understanding energy transactions, the report also studies the revenue returns for investors in various energy channels which manifest themselves in American energy demand and supply dynamics. In depth view has been provided in this report of US oil, electricity, natural gas, nuclear power, coal, wind, and hydroelectric sectors. The various geopolitical interests and intentions governing the exploitation, production, trade and supply of these resources for energy production has also been analyzed by this report in a non-partisan manner. The report starts with a descriptive base analysis of the characteristics of the global energy industry in terms of economic quantity of demand. The drivers of demand and the traditional resources which are used to fulfill this demand are explained along with the emerging mandate of nuclear energy.

  • Carolinas Energy Planning for the Future Summary Report
    CAROLINAS ENERGY Planning for the Future In December 2014, the South Carolina Energy Office, in collaboration with the North Carolina State Energy Program, Advanced Energy, and UNC Charlotte’s Energy Production and Infrastructure Center (EPIC), received a State Energy Program Competitive Award from the U.S. Department of Energy’s Office of Energy Efficiency and Renewable Energy to develop a bi- state coordinated vision for energy planning that can help meet state policy goals, support electric reliability, and comply with environmental standards. As part of the two-year project, EPIC led the creation of a working document that examines North Carolina’s and South Carolina’s energy capacities, infrastructure, regulations, emerging technologies, and energy projections. To summarize the main findings from the working document, this condensed version has been written. This summary document is divided into three sections: Baseline, Projections, and Challenges and Opportunities. The Baseline section describes the region and its demographics, energy consumption, and utility landscape. The Projections section summarizes energy resource trends and forecasts from utility providers. The Challenges and Opportunities section covers the energy challenges facing both states along with opportunities for the future. Overall, this document aims to develop bi-state communication around commonalities in energy production and consumption in the Carolinas.

  • TVA's Bad Nuclear
    TVA’s Bad Nuclear Bet: Gambling BILLIONS on Bellefonte Reactors Prepared by the Southern Alliance for Clean Energy August 2011 Executive Summary “The circumstances for Bellefonte Units 1 and 2 are unique; no other licensee has ever given up its construction permits, partially dismantled the plant and allowed the facility to degrade, then requested that the permits be reissued.” -Joseph F. Williams, NRC Senior Project Manager1 The history of the Tennessee Valley Authority’s (TVA) Bellefonte site in Jackson County, Alabama spans nearly 40 years. A total of four reactors have been proposed, and billions of dollars have been spent, but not a single kilowatt of electricity has ever been produced. After allowing the site to sit idle for more than 20 years and scrapping the facility for spare parts, TVA is now proposing to restart construction of the Bellefonte Unit 1 reactor, which may be one of the greatest gambles in the agency’s history. Southern Alliance for Clean Energy has serious concerns about TVA’s push to complete the mothballed, abandoned Bellefonte reactors. Bellefonte’s unique and complicated history is compounded by that fact that, in order to complete construction of the reactors, TVA faces unique and complicated problems—many worse than any other reactor project has previously faced. This report documents some of our concerns and makes it clear that finishing Bellefonte is not a gamble worth taking. Our concerns include Bellefonte's long, complicated history; multiple safety concerns that have not been addressed; the troubled history of the Babcock &Wilcox “Mark-C 205” design; the unnecessary and costly nature of Bellefonte; and additional obstacles.

  • Nrc Liaison Report
    SC-2Mtg07-2_Att#10 NRC LIAISON REPORT • STP first company to step forward in decades seeking new reactor license The application, a 200,000-page document submitted on a single DVD, was filed on September 24. The staff and STP officials met October 11 for the first public meeting since the application was filed. NRC staffers outlined several issues during the meeting, including a lack of supporting documents for at least two sections, outdated data for one section, missing figures for another and, in one instance, the absence of state emergency preparedness plans that were cross-referenced in the application. • TVA Opts For AP1000 Design Instead Of Completing Partially Finished Existing Reactors. TVA is submitting the combined operating license request nearly two decades after work stopped in 1988 toward building two similar-sized reactors at Bellefonte. TVA officials determined that finishing those reactors, which the agency started building in 1973, would be too costly." Application will be the first involving construction of a Westinghouse AP1000 advanced reactor, made by Westinghouse Electric Co., which is owned by Japan's Toshiba Corp. • Grid Security A video released last month by CNN illustrates the potential danger to the power grid, experts say. While in the past, most had imagined a cyberattack might shut down patches of the US grid for a few days at worst, But the video shows a demonstration by the Idaho National Laboratory that a large electric generator shaking violently, spraying metal parts, and spewing smoke before grinding to a stop. The method of attack used in that demonstration could be replicated to destroy more and larger equipment, several experts say.
