Description
We performed an evaluation to determine whether demolition and decontamination activities at Widows Creek Fossil Plant (WCF) (1) adhered to safety principles found in the TVA Decommissioning, Deactivation, Decontamination, and Demolition (D4) Program Guide and (2) complied with selected safety criteria established in Brandenburg’s Health and Safety Plan (HASP) for WCF. We determined TVA and Brandenburg met selected safety requirements established in TVA’s D4 Program Guide and Brandenburg’s HASP for WCF. However, during our site visit, we noted safety hazards related to an eyewash station and personal protective equipment that were immediately addressed.
