Nuclear Decommissioning: Management of Costs and Risks<br />

____________________________________________________________________________________________________________<br />

The identified decision<br />

breakpoints in that plan<br />

(technical, regula<strong>to</strong>ry and<br />

financial dependencies, decision<br />

base etc.)<br />

The planning of <strong>the</strong> main decommissioning activities on Units 1 and 2 has <strong>the</strong> following aims:<br />

Final aim of <strong>the</strong> decommissioning activities:<br />

Decommissioning activities frame: until 2030<br />

Quantities of materials, subject <strong>to</strong> dismantling<br />

during decommissioning:<br />

Operational RAW, s<strong>to</strong>red in AB-1, <strong>to</strong> be treated:<br />

Removal from <strong>the</strong> site of <strong>the</strong> sources of<br />

ionizing radiation and its clearance from<br />

regula<strong>to</strong>ry control.<br />

About 30 000 <strong>to</strong>ns, 20 0000 <strong>to</strong>ns of <strong>the</strong>m<br />

- metals<br />

About 2000 m 3 solid phase in ECT<br />

About 347 m 3 sorbents<br />

About 540 m 3 solid RAW etc.<br />

The 'Technical Design for <strong>the</strong> Decommissioning of KOZLODUY Units 1 and 2 (PHARE Contract BG 9608-01-01-<br />

L001)', determines <strong>the</strong> technical, regula<strong>to</strong>ry and financial aspects of <strong>the</strong> decommissioning, and <strong>the</strong> main<br />

approaches for <strong>the</strong>ir solution.<br />

The time planning in that<br />

concept (What were <strong>the</strong> major<br />

set-backs in <strong>the</strong> time plans so<br />

far? What measures were taken<br />

<strong>to</strong> remove obstacles? Etc.)<br />

On 14 April 2011 Bulgaria has presented <strong>to</strong> <strong>the</strong> EC its position on <strong>the</strong> continuation of <strong>the</strong> financial support of <strong>the</strong><br />

EU for 2014-2020 in relation with <strong>the</strong> earlier shutdown for decommissioning of Units 1-4 of Kozloduy NPP,<br />

including conceptual linear schedule for <strong>the</strong> decommissioning of Units 1-4. According <strong>to</strong> <strong>the</strong> schedule <strong>the</strong><br />

decommissioning is accelerated and is foreseen <strong>to</strong> be finished in 2030 (5 years earlier than according <strong>to</strong> <strong>the</strong><br />

initial plan). The necessary prerequisites for <strong>the</strong> implementation of <strong>the</strong> accelerated decommissioning are:<br />

Decommissioning license for Units 1 and 2 – by end 2013;<br />

Timely implementation of <strong>the</strong> projects of <strong>the</strong> decommissioning programme for Units 1-4 of Kozloduy NPP<br />

(financed mainly from KIDSF):<br />

o Commissioning of <strong>the</strong> facility for measurement and clearance of materials - September 2016;<br />

o Commissioning of <strong>the</strong> Workshop for defragmentation and decontamination of materials – Contac<strong>to</strong>r:<br />

Consortium ONET Technologies Nuclear International and Risk Engineering OOD. It is expected <strong>to</strong> be<br />

implemented in July 2015;<br />
