Maintenance implementation plan for the plutonium finishing plant. Revision 2
This document outlines the Maintenance Implementation Plan (MIP) for the Plutonium Finishing Plant (PFP) located at the Hanford site at Richland, Washington. This MIP addresses the maintenance program at PFP as it relates to DOE Order 4330.4B. This MIP addresses those actions identified to be worked on in the Fiscal Year (FY) 95/96 timeframe. Full compliance with 4330.4B will take several years. Actions taken will occur in a sequence determined by a graded approach and startup readiness review. PFP is currently working toward the cleanout and stabilization operation which began in November 1994. Thermal stabilization of sludge process uses one glovebox of the facility. This process is presently being looked at being expanded to 12 furnaces. A graded approach is utilized to dictate the priorities of the improvement/upgrade activities identified in Chapter 4.0 of this document. The graded approach utilized a managerial assessment of the order elements using a number of different inputs. Inputs considered included a DOE Order 4330.4B self-assessment of PFP. The PFP Maintenance strategy is to provide the facility with systems and equipment that will be able to sustain the scheduled operation of this section of the PFP. This operating run is scheduled to last seven years. Activities following the stabilization operation will involve completing an Environmental Impact Statement (EIS) to determine future plant activities. This strategy also includes long-term maintenance of the facility for safe occupancy and material storage. The major improvement activities identified in this MIP are in the areas of organization, administration, and maintenance procedures. Other key focuses will be in planning and scheduling and in management involvement. The schedule is based upon application of the graded approach with consideration of known resources available.
