Our Dose Reduction Strategy • Measures on the design stage • Clean-Plant operations on the construction stage and the test run operation stage • Continuous Dose Reduction
1.Dose Reduction Measures on the design stage DoseReduction Reducing Radiation Improvement of Water Treatment Capability CRUDreduction CRUD Generation Control Use of Low-Co materials Improvement of Working environment Shielding Optimization Shortening exposure time Improvement of equipment Automation/Remote operation
2.Clean-Plant operations on the construction stage and the test run operation stage ・ Keep Work area clean ・ Use wrapping against construction dust ・ Introduce Water chemistry technologies
3. Continuous Dose Reduction 3-1. Management of Workers’ Dose Data 3-2. Monitoring of Dust & Radiation 3-3. Water Chemistry Technologies 3-4. Dose Reduction at Outages
3-1.Management of Workers’ Dose Data Work Code Input Device Alarm Personnel Dosimeter Work Code and Dose data Work Code Controlled area Work Code & Dose data
3-3.Water chemistry Dose rate of PLR piping of our plants are remarkably low compared to other plants.
3-4. Dose Reduction at Outages • Education program for foremen during Outage • Holding “HP work Schedule meetings” periodically • HP Patrol during Outage frequently • Posting up the Detailed Radiation Map of D/W area
Special issue in 2005 We performed special activities for 1.Unit 3 Fuel Leakage …Our first experience 2.Earth Quake on Aug.16,2005
1. Unit 3 Fuel Leakage On Jul.2,2005 We first experienced fuel leakage at Unit 3 resulted in the increasing value of OG monitor . Main measures we took were as follows : Surveillance of OG Prevention from intake of I-131
2.Earth Quake (Aug.16,2005) All Units in Operation were shut down automatically . SCRAM triggers are set to 200 GAL: horizontal earthquake movement, 100 GAL : vertical . Seismic Center Magnitude : 7.2 Depth : 42Km approx.
