Summary and bibliography of safety-related events at boiling-water nuclear power plants as reported in 1978
A bibliography is presented on microfiche that contains 100-word abstracts of reports submitted to the US Nuclear Regulatory Commission concerning operational events that occurred at boiling-water-reactor nuclear power plants in 1978. The 1239 abstracts included in the bibliography describe off-normal incidents, failures, and design or construction deficiencies that were experienced at the facilities. They are arranged alphabetically by reactor name and then chronologically for each reactor. Keyword and permuted-title indexes are provided to facilitate location of the abstracts of interest. Tables that summarize the information contained in the bibliography are also provided. The information in the tables includes a listing of the equipment items involved in the events reported and the associated number of reports for each item. Similar information is given for the various kinds of instrumentation and systems, causes of the failures, deficiencies noted, and the time of occurrence (i.e., during refueling, operation, testing, or construction). Three of the more interesting events that occurred during the year are reviewed in detail.
