Updated project plan: Shippingport Station Decommissioning Project

Technical Report ·
OSTI ID:6471372

Project plans are the primary documentation used by the DOE Decision Authority to identify the Major System Acquisition Process - Key Decision Points. For the Shippingport Station Decommissioning Project (SSDP) the four key decision points are: approve the mission need, project objective, and the initiation of project activity; approve the selection of the SSDP decommissioning mode; approve the initiation of SSDP decommissioning operations; and approve the release of the Shippingport Station site as safe from a radiation standpoint. The purpose of the SSDP is to place the Shippingport Atomic Power Station in a long-term radiologically safe condition following defueling of the reactor, to perform decommissioning in such a manner as to demonstrate to the nuclear industry the application of decommissioning procedures to a large nuclear power plant, and to provide useful planning data for future decommissioning projects.
