  1. Overview of Shelter Implementation Plan Progress Dennis K. Kreid Pacific Northwest National Laboratory January 22, 1998

  2. Shelter Project Strategy • Status as of February 1997 • 1997 Progress • The Path Forward

  3. Strategy of DOE Involvement at Shelter Objective: • To assist in international effort to convert Chornobyl Shelter and destroyed reactor Unit 4 into a stable, environmentally safe, manageable system Basis for U.S. assistance • December 1995 Ukraine/G7 memorandum of understanding Approach: • Provide urgent operational safety improvements • Support international program • Avoid conflicts and duplication

  4. February 1997 Status - Equipment Needs Project • Provide urgent operational safety improvement to upgrade shelter worker safety • Nuclear (criticality) safety • Dust suppression • Industrial safety • Equipment needs prioritized, specification preparation and purchasing initiated

  5. February 1997 - Shelter Activities European Commission Short and Long Term Measures, final report - November 1996 • Approved by G7/Government of Ukraine • Established project framework • Lacked sufficient logic, cost, and schedule definition G7 commissioned Shelter Implementation Plan • Draft due March 31, 1997 • To provide additional definition to support initiation of Shelter project tendering

  6. 1997 Progress Report - Shelter Equipment Needs Dose Reduction % in Purchasing Total $ % Delivered / Shipment $5.9M 40 60 Electronic dosimeters; survey instruments; air sampling and monitoring; shielding/enclosures; calibration sources; radiological protection technician training; access control; databasing; shielding software; whole body counting; high-efficiency particulate air (HEPA) testing; excess radiation area clothing and respirators Dust Suppression 0.4M 50 50 Decontamination methods survey; airless sprayers; dry and water vapor HEPA vacuum

  7. 1997 Progress Report - Shelter Equipment Needs Nuclear (Criticality) Safety Monitoring % in PurchasingTotal $ % Delivered / Shipment $1.3M 100% --- 8 pod detection system; power supplies; alarming readouts; archival and trending diagnostics Industrial safety $1.85 70 30 Personal protective gear (hearing protection, hard hats, eye protection, gloves, respirators with internal communications); fall protection equipment; rescue gear; industrial hygiene test kits; first aid kits; concrete sawing and boring equipment; electrical generators; air compressor; jackhammer; two-way radios

  8. Dose reduction PD-3 self reading electronic dosimeters

  9. Water Vapor assisted surface HEPA-vac maintenance of good radiological conditions in frequently accessed areas of Shelter

  10. BF3 & fission chamber detectors with gamma, temperature and humidity sensors. Assess neutron count rate transients for criticality safety implications System includes power supply, alarming readouts, data collection and trending capability, diagnostics

  11. Concrete drilling and sawing equipment Replaces large, unreliable existing equipment Support electrical/ventilation/access-way installations

  12. 1997 Progress Report - Unit 3/4 Ventilation Stack Repair Issue Damaged in 1986 accident Urgent and necessary action G7 and Ukraine support “bilateral” repair project Status Ukraine, Canada, U.S. establish $2.25M project ($4.5M Ukraine, $0.8M Canada, $1.0M U.S.) Schedule Awaiting final design, project plan deliverables Materials and equipment purchasing February-March 1998 Repairs April to May 1998 (subject to weather)

  13. 1997 Progress Report - Shelter Activity • Shelter Implementation Plan • Draft completed March 31, 1997 • G7 and government of Ukraine approved May 1997 • Plan retains access to fuel-containing material (FCM) • Develops removal strategies and technologies • Does not include FCM removal • Sufficient to support international pledging • European Bank for Reconstruction and Development (EBRD) selected as funds administrator

  14. 1997 Progress Report - Shelter Activity • Denver Summit, June 1997G7 pledges $300M U.S. to Shelter funds • Ukraine pledges $50M, July 1997 • International Donors Conference, New York, November 1997$37M U.S. additional pledges (other country donations) G7/EBRD conclude sufficient commitment to initiate project

  15. SIP Opportunity • The SIP is a logic-based program based on Shelter information, analyses, and assessments available to date. It features • Early Biddable Projects (EBPs) to develop the bases for optimizing and finalizing design decisions • Also define and initiate balance of required infrastructure improvements • 10 programmatic milestones (3 key) to integrate and drive final decisions • Long-term tasks to achieve safe confinement compatible with FCM removal strategy/decisions • Total estimated cost = $760M

  16. Work Breakdown Structure (WBS) Including the Grouping of Tasks

  17. Criteria for Selection and Specification of Early Biddable Projects • Urgent to risk management • Essential to improve levels of knowledge and engineering to support decision making • Critical path • Readily implementable • Created construction infrastructure

  18. Early Biddable Projects – See SIP Section 9 for Scope Descriptions of Early Biddable Projects Civil Engineering Structural stabilization, design integration and mobilization SIP Task 1 Structural investigation and monitoring Part of SIP Task 6 Geotechnical investigation SIP Task 7 Safe confinement strategy SIP task 21 Operations and Monitoring Seismic characterization and monitoring Part of SIP Task 8 Radiological protection program Part of SIP Task 15 Industrial safety, fire protection, infrastructure Part of SIP Task 16 and access control Integrated monitoring system Part of SIP Task 17 Integrated database/configuration management Part of SIP Task 18

  19. Early Biddable Projects – See SIP Section 9 for Scope Descriptions of Early Biddable Projects (contd) Emergency Systems Emergency preparedness SIP Task 9 Dust management Part of SIP Task 10 Emergency dust suppression system Part of SIP Task 11 Criticality control and nuclear safety Part of SIP Task 12 Contained water management Part of SIP Task 13 Fuel Containing Material FCM initial characterization Part of SIP Task 14 FCM removal and waste management strategy Part of SIP Task 19 FCM removal technology development Part of SIP Task 20

  20. The Path Forward Activity Established • PMU/EBP expressions of interest 8/15 - 9/15/97 • PMU RFPs 12/15/97 - 2/15/98 • EBP RFPs 12/15/97 - 3/15/98 • EBP awards/performance 5/98 - 4/1/99 • Key decision PI 2/99(stabilization & shielding strategy) • Long-term projects 4/99 - 3/06

  22. EBRD Procurement Policies • Open tendering required for >$200,000 ECU goods and services, >$5M ECU works • Process • Pre-purchasing plan • Notification of opportunities for tendering(http://www.ebrd.com - 85£ UK subscription fee • Pre-qualification where appropriate • Invitation to tender/tender documents • International competition encouraged • Receipt of tenders, evaluation and award • Objective evaluation criteria • Contract administration • Client (PMU-driven), bank oversight

  23. Shelter Activities - The Path Forward • Early Biddable Projects will initiate mid CY98 • PMU and EPO subcontracting opportunities • Construction phase projects will initiate ~mid CY99 • More subcontracting opportunities • Strong U.S. contractor support will help ensure implementation success
