How will the team choose the systems and components to be inspected?
The scope will be determined using a graded selection criteria designed specifically to identify risk significant areas where components have low margins and/or where human actions are critical. This is intended to focus inspection efforts on design and engineering areas which have a high degree of safety significance. Additionally, the scope identification process will be informed by industry operating experience. For Vermont Yankee, the components and human actions selected will also be informed by issues related to the power uprate review process.
