OSTI ID:5534267
Concerns about the Department of Energy's (DOE) activities to restart three nuclear reactors known as the K, L, and P reactors at its Savannah River Site (SRS) in South Caroline and reactor safety culture concerns precipitated a request for the monitoring of the restart activities of DOE and the Westinghouse Savannah River Company, the contractor who manages and operates SRS. This book describes slippages in the restart schedule, factors causing the latest delays, and safety oversight changes and safety culture concerns.
