The Shippingport Station Decommissioning Project (SSDP) is the first commercial size nuclear power plant to undergo decommissioning in the United States. One of the objectives in decommissioning the plant is to demonstrate the technology used and thoroughly document the results for dissemination to utilities, government entities, the nuclear industry, and the decommissioning community. DOE has established a Technology Transfer Program to assure that useful information compiled on the project, such as management techniques, radiological controls, decommissioning methods, lessons learned and other special studies and tests, expected to be of interest to the industry, is adequately documented and available to outside parties or participants. The Shippingport decommissioning experience will create a significant data base for the nuclear utility industry in future decommissioning of commercial nuclear power generating facilities.
