Waste Isolation Pilot Plant dry bin-scale integrated systems checkout plan
The Integrated Systems Checkout Plan (ISCP) addresses a two-phase approach to ensuring WIPP readiness to support the Dry Bin-Scale CH TRU Waste Test. The first phase includes all those activities necessary to ensure readiness of individual systems and equipment. The second phase is a bin-scale integrated checkout using four mock bins. The ISCP has been developed to provide assurance that operational activities dedicated to supporting the bin-scale tests can be achieved safely. To attain this assurance, a systematic approach will address: development of procedures to control system and equipment start-up and acceptance tests; development of procedures to control operation of systems and equipment, waste receipt, emplacement, operation, test termination, waste retrieval, and post-test shipping; monitoring of systems installation and checkout to ensure systems meet acceptance testing criteria; initial operation of systems to validate procedural controls; training of personnel to perform systems operational activities in accordance with procedural controls; capability of corrective action for abnormal events; and documentation of acceptance testing data and personnel training and qualification requirements. 11 refs., 7 figs., 2 tabs.
