Open Questions. . . . in determining operating model and support requirements:

•How much knowledge must the owner have and how much can the plant designer be relied on?

•What information does the public need and when?

•How much work can be done locally?

•What is the best contracting and finance model?

Does “best” mean most certain...

...or lowest construction cost...

...or lowest through-life cost...

...or minimum ‘initial’ client equity?Presentation title - edit in Header and Footer

39

Summary• NNB projects internationally have many different configurations of client, suppliers and

(therefore) differing support requirements

• All NNB stakeholders must have a basic capability and capacity across the three critical core skill-sets

• NNB Support service organisations must be adaptable; to project procurement strategy, phases of the project, client thick/thin ‘IC’ role

• IC role needs support to varying degrees during the transients in the project lifecycle; interface management is a critical focus area

• Flexibility is needed within the NNB support service provider and the commercial arrangements to optimise delivery of the service

• Its important that local suppliers are embedded into the NNB support infrastructure;lasting legacy in operations

Safety is Paramount• The health, safety and welfare of employees,

clients and third parties are of prime importance

• Health and safety systems accredited to OHSAS 18001:1999 Occupational Health and Safety Management Systems

• Systems have to be mature - focus on behavioural safety

• What am I about to do?

• What could go wrong?

• What could be done to make it safer?

• What have I done to communicate the hazards?

56

Security

57

Security Training, Awareness and Staff CulturePrimary means of preventing breaches of security:• Training, awareness, vigilance and culture

• ‘Need to know’ principle

Nuclear staff need security clearance and security induction training which provides:• A detailed understanding of the security measures in place

• A detailed understanding of the individuals own responsibility

• An overview of the UK’s:

• Official Secrets Act

• Anti-Terrorism Act

• Crime and Securities Act

• Nuclear security industry regulations

58

Confidence

59

Confidence: Comprehensive Quality Systems

Quality at the design and detailing stage has a major impact on overall project delivery quality, having a critical influence in the following areas:

• Ease, speed and cost of construction

• Third party and Regulator approvals

• Regulator confidence

Accreditation should include:

• ISO 9001: Quality standard appropriate to services

• ISO 14001: Environmental management

• ISO 18001: Occupational health and safety

NDA Integrated Waste Management

• Objective: Ensure that wastes are managed in a manner that protects people and the environment, now and in the future, and in ways that comply with Government policies and provide value for money:

• Address the whole waste lifecycle

• Risk reduction as a priority

• Centralised and multi-site approaches

• Application of Waste Hierarchy

• Diverse solutions

• Waste management should be integrated

• Seek opportunities to do things better

• Opportunities at classification boundaries

78

NDA Mission

“Deliver safe, sustainable and publicly acceptable solutions to the challenge of nuclear clean up and waste management

This means never compromising on safety or security, taking full account of our social and environmental responsibilities, always seeking value for money for the taxpayer and actively engaging with stakeholders.”

NUCLEAR OWNERSHIP AND OPERATION – UK EXPERIENCE AND

PRINCIPLES

By Mike Weightman

IAEA workshop January 2014

CONTENTS

• History of Owner/Operator in UK• Concepts Associated with Owner/Operator • Some Related Matters• Some Principles• Summary

82

History in UK

• Nuclear sites originated in the 1940/50s• Originally all nuclear sites were GOGOs – under UKAEA and CEGB• Several structural changes especially with BNFL created in 1971 but

still GOGOs• 1982 – Radiochemical Centre Ltd (Amersham) privatised later several

changes of ownership including foreign companies: POPO • 1995/96 – British Energy created to own operate AGRs & PWR and

privatised: POPO• 1995/6 – Magnox Electric Ltd created to operate Magnox stations:

GOGO • 2005 – NDA created and owned (on behalf of Government);

Springfields operated by Westinghouse Ltd• 2007 – Magnox Stations operation contracted out: GOCO• 2009 – EDF buys British Energy: POPO

83

Some Concepts

• Owner• Operator• Corporate Body• Nuclear Site Licensee/duty holder• Contractor• Parent Company• Subsidiary Company• Site Licensee Company• Management and Operation Contracts• Parent Company Agreement• Controlling Mind• Intelligent Customer• Intelligent Owner• Memorandum and Articles of Association• Employee

84

Related Matters - Corporate Relationships

• Corporate structures can be very complex, e.g.:– Licensee is a subsidiary of a group parent (EDF)– Licensee is a subsidiary of a joint venture company (Sellafield Ltd)

• Parent Company/Joint Venture Company will expect to to adopt strategic oversight and role of licensee company; e.g. business planning, monitoring of performance and may take profits or provide funding

• Licensee has to demonstrate that these are not detrimental to safety or licensees legal duties,e.g.:

– Day-to-day operations– Ability to shut down plant, stop operations, undertake other essential actions for safety,

without recourse to the parent company– Having adequate funding and other resources for safe operation, maintenance,

decommissioning, etc• Memorandum and Articles of Association can define these relationships and licence

application needs to reflect them in the Safety Management Prospectus which defines company structure, management system, staffing etc

• Control of change through Licence Conditions

85

Related Matters – Core Capability, Intelligent Customer & Design Authority

• Core Capability – knowledge, functional specialism and resources within licensee to maintain control & oversight of safety

• Core Capability:– Includes technical, operational and managerial aspects– Covers ‘Intelligent Customer’ & ‘Design Authority’

• Intelligent Customer – knows what is required, able to specify it to contractor, can intelligently supervise the work, and can technically review the work at all stages

• Licensee as Intelligent Customer retains overall responsibility for, control and oversight of the nuclear safety, radiological safety and security of all of its business including work done on its behalf by contractors

• Design Authority – function responsible for, and requisite knowledge to maintain the design integrity and overall basis for safety (safety case) throughout the plant life cycle

• Licensee Design Authority may assign detailed specialist knowledge to ‘Responsible Designers’ but must have sufficient Intelligent Customer capability to undertake its role

86

Some Principles (1)

IAEA Fundamental Principle 1; The prime responsibility for safety must rest with the person or organisation

responsible for facilities and activities that give rise to radiation risks.•To install or operate a specified nuclear facility in a defined location you must have a nuclear site licence (NSL)•A NSL is only granted to a Corporate Body based on the regulator’s assessment of:

– The capability, organisation and resources of the applicant corporate body– The nature of the prescribed activities and the relevant safety case– The nature and location of the site

•NSL is not transferable•Licensee and user of the site are the same corporate body

87

Some Principles (2)

• Licensee has absolute responsibility for compliance with NSL (even if breach results from contractor or tenant on the site) and for no-fault financial liability – includes failings related to the design and hence needs to take ownership of the design

• Need clarity on legal responsibility for safe operation, criminal and financial responsibilities – avoid dual licensing and joint licensing

• Licensee has to have effective day-to-day control over all activities on the site

• Licensee has to have effective control of safety related resources• Owners cannot interfere with the Operators/Licensee responsibilities but

should support them

88

Summary

• UK has a history of changing Owner/Operator relationships from GOGO to FPOPO• With no UK reactor design and a market led nuclear policy we have complex

ownership/operator models• The UK Nuclear Site Licensing approach provides a means of ensuring prime

responsibilities and addressing changing corporate models and financing including foreign designs and ownership

• There is a need to address related matters such as Core Capabilities, Intelligent Customer, Design Authority, etc and other issues such as security responsibilities
