DESCRIPTION Practice in health impact assessments at the time of identification of this issue was to convert radiation exposure estimates into estimates of health effects, such as cancer deaths, illness, and life shortening. However, the models that were …
1
DESCRIPTION The concern of this issue involves the requirement for verification that the balance-of-plant equipment satisfies the design intent. This issue was identified in NUREG-0705. [1] CONCLUSION Task I.F in NUREG-0660, [2] the TMI Action Plan, is a …
1
DESCRIPTION Historical Background Cracking has occurred in PWR piping systems as a result of stress corrosion, vibratory and thermal fatigue, and dynamic loading. However, as of February 1981, no cracking had been experienced in the primary system piping …
1
DESCRIPTION Historical Background Prior to 1981, the number of bolting-related incidents reported by licensees was on the increase. A large number of these were related to primary pressure boundary applications and major component support structures. As a …
