Description

The concept discussed in this paper is how a PC-based risk management tool, based on a plant specific PSA, can be used to manage risk during the day-to-day operation of a plant by planning maintenance activities in order to avoid plant configurations that result in undesirable increases in plant risk. The living PSA Safety Monitor tool described in this paper is based on the results of work performed in support of the USNRC and currently being developed for the Dukovany nuclear power plant in the Czech Republic as part of a SAIC contract with the Czech State Office for Nuclear Safety.
