Nuclear Engineer III- Configuration Management and Engineering
Standards- Nuclear Engineering - Millstone Station
Kewaunee Power Station Design and Licensing
Basis Integrated Review (DLBIR). Review
of design and licensing basis documents to validate the Kewanee updated safety
analysis report (USAR). Also review of
Licensing correspondence for commitments and impact on the USAR. The completed
review analysis and update to the USAR results in achieving plant license
extension.
MEPL (Q-List) Program Manager, responsible for implementing, maintaining and
improving the Materials Equipment and Parts Lists (MEPL) Program which
establishes the Quality Assurance requirements for all operating plant Systems,
Structures and Components in accordance with NQA-1 quality assurance , codes,
and industry standards. Improvements are
based on periodic assessments of program performance and integration into
Dominion Fleet processes.
Chair person for the Millstone Station design
control program responsible for coordinating the Design Control Manual Working
Group team to make changes to the DCM for design and configuration control
process improvements while ensuring compliance with regulations, codes,
standards and commitments. Some improvements were identified in the recovery of
the Millstone Units while others are needed to ensure that the units are safe,
efficient and competitive in the deregulated market.
Team member of the Dominion Nuclear Fleet design
control process ongoing project to convert the Design and Configuration control
processes from station specific procedures to Fleet procedures to ensure
consistency for all the Dominion nuclear stations Manuals, Procedures,
Guidelines, Handbooks and Forms. This includes electronic processing of design
control packages through a Vendor developed electronic software program (CMIS).
Senior Engineer Engineering/Quality Assurance
Group - Programs and Engineering Standards - Millstone Station
Duties and responsibilities was to
evaluate, measure and monitor engineering processes, products and personnel to
promote, achieve and maintain high engineering standards and professional
integrity.
Lead assessor for the Engineering Assurance
Group for Millstone units 1, 2 and 3.
Assessments evaluate performance and compliance issues for engineering
processes such as Design Changes, FSAR changes, Safety Evaluations, MEPL
(Materials and Parts Lists) quality /safety classifications, Calculations, etc.
and their interfaces with other plant processes. The assessments identify adverse quality
conditions, strengths, weaknesses and areas for improvement. The reports have recommended corrective
actions and requirements for follow-up effectiveness reviews. The assessments review previously identified
issues and Benchmark industry operating experience in the results.
Participated in an Institute of Nuclear Power
Operations (INPO) plant evaluation at Commonwealth Edisons Quad Cities Nuclear
plant (September, 1998). Participated as
an industry peer in the area of design engineering configuration
management. The evaluation included a
review of the design change process, the electronic work control system,
component classification program and processes that interface with and affect
plant design configuration.
