Douglas L. Noble Manager - Radiation Protection Davis-Besse Nuclear Power Station (419) 321-7780 office (419) 304-0068 cell From: "June Scott" <[email protected]> To: <[email protected]> Date: 04/15/2013 10:07 PM Subject: RE: Powernet: Stored SCBA air in the event of an SBO Sent by: [email protected] Another couple questions to consider about the availability of supplied breathing air is: 1. Is there an existing agreement or contract with a local fire department or SCUBA shop to provide appropriate air if such a need arose where it could not be supplied by an onsite compressor. Are personnel available to run the compressor when needed in an emergency? Are maintenance records and Grade certificates available? 2. A contract or agreement with an local SCBA supplier is also an options. They most likely have a mobile truck with air supply available. Make sure any supplier is obligated (in the contract) to provide the appropriate documents for traceability of the air. This could be a pain in the tail to get after the fact for an audit. From: [email protected] [mailto:[email protected]] On Behalf Of Hinrichsen, Keith Sent: Monday, April 15, 2013 1:57 PM To: [email protected] Subject: Powernet: Stored SCBA air in the event of an SBO Diablo Canyon would like to know what other stations maintain in the way of stored air capacity (Grade D or better) for self-contained breathing apparatus (SCBA) recharging should an accident occur and the site falls into a station black-out (SBO) condition? In our post-Fukushima world, we are re-evaluating our 1981 commitment to maintain 500 man-hours of breathable air that is captured in a series of large lateral cylinders? roughly 45K cu.ft. Our questions are: 1. Does your station maintain an inventory of stored capacity air? 2. If so, how much (either cu.ft. or man-hours equivalents)? 3. What is this number based on (ours is a Design Criteria Note), and what was the date of that commitment?
