Addendum to preliminary safety analysis report, Centrifuge Plant Demonstration Facility, Building K-1220

Technical Report · Wed Apr 01 00:00:00 EST 1987

OSTI ID:6467849

This report supplements the Preliminary Safety Analysis Report: Centrifuge Plant Demonstration Facility, Building K-1220, K/D-3924 (Draft), by (1) replying to detailed comments from Oak Ridge Operations (ORO) of the Department of Energy (DOE), (2) incorporating additional information, (3) reproducing a revised version of an earlier memo that addresses several important safety issues, and (4) including a revised list of general and specific safety criteria, safety definitions, and safety systems. The last item, and this supplement as a whole, reflects a revised view of which elements of a facility should be emphasized in a preliminary safety analysis report (PSAR). The original PSAR for the Centrifuge Plant Demonstration Facility (CPDF) was written to include capital equipment loss as a safety concern; this supplement views capital equipment loss as a safety concern only when such loss could affect the health and safety of the public or employees. Several of the detailed comments are answered by a reference to K/O-4036. The more important safety information, besides that given in the memo in Appendix A, is to be found in the replies to comments. It should be emphasized that this supplement, like the original CPDF PSAR, is a preliminary report prepared before the design was complete. In the judgment of the CPDF operating contractor, the conclusion stated in the summary chapter of the PSAR is still valid - the facility can be operated with no significant impact on the health and safety of the public and employees.
