Team: Fault at nuclear plant may be active

Japan's nuclear regulator says that a nuclear power plant in northern Japan may be sitting on active faults.

Nuclear Regulation Authority official Kunihiko Shimazaki and 4 experts concluded their 2-day inspection at the Higashidori plant in Aomori Prefecture on Friday.

They scraped and washed the ground surface to see how far 2 faults in the compound extend.

Plant operator Tohoku Electric Power Company has argued that the shift in the strata was formed after soil in the ground absorbed water, and that it was not the result of seismic activity.

The experts say they cannot deny the possibility that the 2 faults are active, and that they can reach a conclusion without additional surveys.

Experts advise stricter nuclear evacuation rules

A panel of experts from Japan's nuclear regulatory agency has proposed stricter evacuation rules for nuclear accidents.

Nuclear Regulation Authority experts advise the public to immediately take shelter when radiation levels reach 500 microsieverts per hour. That's half of the International Atomic Energy Agency guideline of 1,000 microsieverts per hour.

One day after the Fukushima Daiichi nuclear power plant accident last year, radiation of 500 microsieverts per hour was measured at a distance of 6 kilometers.

IAEA expects agreement with Iran in next meeting

An International Atomic Energy Agency official has expressed hope that the nuclear watchdog could reach an agreement with Iran over access to Iran's nuclear site.

IAEA team leader Herman Nackaerts told reporters on Friday that the IAEA was not yet able to obtain Iran's consent to inspect a military facility in Parchin, outside the Iranian capital.

The site is suspected of being used for experiments related to nuclear weapons development.

TEPCO admits poor safety culture as root cause of Fukushima crisis

Tokyo Electric Power Co. said Friday its inadequate safety culture resulted in a lack of preparation for severe nuclear accidents, as it tries to dig deeper into the root cause of the Fukushima crisis rather than just blaming the larger-than-expected tsunami for triggering the catastrophe.

Based on its revised understanding, the utility known as TEPCO unveiled the outline of a plan to revamp its oft-criticized nuclear division, including an idea to set up a regulatory organization that is inside the company but independent of the division in issuing orders for safety measures.

U.S. Program Extracts all HEU From Austria

WASHINGTON -- Austria as of this week has become the 22nd nation to divest itself of all weapon-grade uranium through a program managed by the U.S. National Nuclear Security Administration.

Roughly 2.6 pounds of highly enriched uranium was removed from the TRIGA reactor at the Vienna University of Technology and last month shipped by sea to an unidentified location in the United States under a 2011 U.S.-Austrian memorandum of understanding.

The European Bank for Reconstruction and Development (EBRD) had decided to freeze money intended to build spent fuel storage and buy storage casks needed to dismantle the Ignalina reactor in eastern Lithuania, the European Commission said in a statement.

It has to be stored somewhere, storage pools on site are not for long term. Billions of dollars have been spent and still no solution.

Nuclear power would become far more expensive if they factored this in. I really don't like the idea of pushing it off for our future generations to deal with.

New Containment Flaw Identified in the BWR Mark 1

Fairewinds shows that the nuclear industry’s plan to vent the containment at Fukushima Daiichi could not have prevented a containment failure and the ensuing explosions. Look at the graphics from the containment stress tests conducted more than 40 years ago at a US nuclear reactor identical to Fukushima Daiichi Unit 1. This video and its graphics provide important clues about why Fukushima Daiichi Unit 1 exploded.

David Lochbaum, chief nuclear safety official of the Union of Concerned Scientists, has another possible explanation. As steam and hydrogen built up within the primary containment shell, high pressure may have forced an opening between the primary containment shell, called the drywell, and the metal cap that is bolted onto the shell. A pressure test decades ago at the Brunswick Nuclear Plant in North Carolina demonstrated that such a high-pressure leak could occur in Mark I reactors built at the Fukushima plant, Lochbaum said.

"This tragedy will be closely examined for its causes, what happened and why," Lochbaum said. "That scrutiny must determine how hydrogen got into the reactor buildings to cause the catastrophic explosions. The drywell head pathway may be that answer.

Mark 1 containments were not specifically designed to handle these situations:
Reactor Vessel Rupture
Steam Generator Rupture
Large break (LOCA) Loss Of Coolant Accidents

These kinds of accidents produce higher containment pressure and more fission products. High heat caused by these kinds of accidents can also lead to failing containment by way of cracks or ruptures.

Statistics for Peach Bottom are likely similar to units at Fukushima as they have similar designs.
Peach Bottom BWR Mark 1 Peak Design Basis Accident Pressure PSIG 49.1 (KPA 339)
Peach bottom design: 56psig, ultimate failure pressure 148 psig

Containment Cap:

The yellow containment cap bolt style used at Peach Bottom nuclear plant is the style used at Fukushima and is prone to bolt elongation (stretching) and flange separation (opening) under high temperatures. Accidents where high containment (drywell) temperatures occur are more likely to have the containment cap bolts stretch.

The silicon seal of the containment cap can also fail, it degrades significantly at temperatures over about 600 K (620 ‘F). These two flaws can create an outlet for containment in situations where the pressure and temperatures are both high.

**This is certainly a potential scenario as part of the unit 3 explosion. Considerable steam and debris was ejected high in the air but the containment cap or parts of it have not been found in the debris.

TEPCO admits lack of safety, bad habits led to nuclear disaster

<snips>

The operator of the Fukushima Daiichi nuclear power plant that was stricken after a tsunami last year said on Friday its lack of safety and bad habits were behind the nuclear accident, its most forthright admission of culpability.

The operator, Tokyo Electric Power Co, said it accepted the findings of a parliamentary inquiry into the Fukushima nuclear disaster that accused the company of “collusion” with industry regulators.....

TEPCO President Naomi Hirose said several months ago he was baffled by criticism of the company, which until recently has denied it could have foreseen the scale the tsunami and earthquake that knocked out cooling and power at the plant, despite warnings from scientists.

The once well-respected utility, now under government control, has been widely castigated for its failure to prepare for the disaster, and lampooned for its inept response as the crisis unfolded.

Conference aims to dispel myths about Fukushima disaster


Clip this article

TOKYO — The Fukushima Ministerial Conference on Nuclear Safety, to be held in Koriyama, Japan, from Saturday, aims to dispel myths about the nuclear emergency that followed last year’s earthquake and tsunami and its effects on the region.

"There are a multitude of myths and untruths that have arisen since the accident in March last year. This conference aims to dispel some of them by providing the facts and then getting the media to disseminate this both here and abroad," Taisuke Mibae, assistant secretary-general of the conference, said on Thursday.

"We have had acceptances from more than 100 countries of the International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA) and we expect a very instructive conference as we have been planning this since February," he said.
