  1. POWER PLANT AND LABORATORY INTERFACE AND DATA MANAGEMENT IN THE ELECTRONIC WORLD Rebecca Charles – TBE Lynne Perry – TBE Doug Wahl – Exelon

  2. Introduction • Power Plant Perspective – Doug Wahl • Laboratory Interface – Rebecca Charles • REMP Report Preparation – Lynne Perry

  3. Power Plant Perspective Doug Wahl

  4. REMP Management – PB & LGS • Stations Own their Program • One Individual Responsible for Implementing Both Programs • Administration and Oversight of Vendors • Perform Required Surveillances • Preparation of Annual Report for Station • POC for NRC Inspections and Issues

  5. REMP Management • The Programs Contracted Out • Normandeau Associates, Inc. • Sample Collection • Land Use Census • Teledyne Brown Engineering • Radiological Analyses • Interlaboratory Comparison Program

  6. Program Implementation Goals • 0% Errors • Standardization • Cost Effective

  7. Common Goals • Eliminate Transcription Errors • Eliminate Calculation Errors • Standardize Paperwork • Electronic Transfer of Data

  8. THE JURASSIC PERIOD

  9. Chain of Custody

  10. THE 20TH CENTURY

  11. Normandeau’s Data Sheet

  12. EXELON • Corporation Formed Merger of PECO and CECO • Included the Three AmerGen Plants • TMI, Oyster Creek and Clinton • Standardization of Programs and Processes • Common Procedure Development

  13. LGS, OC, PB & TMI REMPs • Share Expertise Between Sites • Standardization • Similar Sampling Equipment • Common Vendors • Sample Collection • Analytical Services • Issued New REMP Contracts to Vendors

  14. Laboratory Interface Rebecca Charles

  15. THE 21ST CENTURY

  16. Electronic Transfer of Data • New contract required electronic data deliverable • Exelon defined fields and format • Some data was not part of current login • Decision made to transfer all of field data electronically to Teledyne

  17. Developing the Forms • Process took cooperation • Began with Exelon/Normadeau sample collection sheet • Some modifications required • Rules and training for samplers • Data can be updated • Layout cannot be changed • Must use valid values

  18. New Chain of Custody

  19. ELECTRONIC RECEIPT OF DATA • THE PROCESS

  20. DeliverySample Collection/Receipt Sheets • Forms completed by samplers – Excel files • Emailed to Teledyne email – knoxlab@tbe.com or • Posted on password protected ftp site. • Hardcopy sent with samples • Print area only • Serves as chain-of-custody

  21. Loading data to Laboratory Information Management System (LIMS) • Data is parsed • Data can be viewed before loading • Checker program verifies data • Corrections can be made • Loaded to data base

  22. Laboratory Login (Request for Analysis)

  23. Acknowledgement

  24. Report of Analysis

  25. Advantages of Electronic Transfer of Data • No hand entry at login • No transfer errors • Review time reduced at Teledyne laboratory • Time reduced for Exelon review of acknowledgement • Field data included in Electronic Data Deliverable

  26. REMP Report Preparation Lynne Perry

  27. PAST REMP REPORTS • Individual files faxed, mailed or emailed for review • Complete report put together manually • Sent over night for review

  28. THE FIX • Adobe Acrobat • Combined Word, Excel, bitmap images and Power Point files

  29. REMP REPORTS FOR THE 21ST CENTURY • Complete report for 1st draft • Standardized REMP report for Exelon-East

  30. THE REMP REPORT • Lims query to populate tables • Automatic calculation • Elimination of data entry errors

  31. BENEFITS AND SAVINGS • Normandeau • Elimination of calculation errors • Elimination of data entry errors • Reduction of paperwork • Ease of record retention • 50% MAN-HOURS SAVED PER PLANT

  32. EXELON • Complete Report Data Package • Lab Report, COC, TBE Acknowledgement Sheet, Data Calculation Sheets • Immediate Notification Of Missed Limits • Immediate Receipt Of Reports Or Analysis • Standardized REMP Reports • Standardized Data Base • 108 MAN-HOURS SAVED PER PLANT

  33. TELEDYNE BROWN ENGINEERING • 75% time reduction at login • Elimination of login error • 95% time reduction of login review • Immediate delivery of ROAs • 95% reduction of data entry errors in REMP tables • 50% time reduction reviewing REMP tables • Complete REMP draft available in february • 145 MAN-HOURS SAVED PER PLANT
