experts to define risk-related systems, and actionsincluded compilation of historical files to define servicecriteria for pilot systems and the rest of the systems.As regards Reliability Centered Maintenance, thenecessary software tools were acquired in 1995, theapplication guidelines and procedures were drawn up,and proper training was provided to maintenancepersonnel.Also in 1995, we have developed a program to performin-service maintenance that takes into consideration therecommendations of the NRC and American industry, aswell as the experience of BWR plants that haveimplemented it. This program has been submitted to theNuclear Safety Board. We will begin to apply in-servicemaintenance in 1996 to systems such as LPCS, RHR,ESSENTIAL AIR and ESW.NUCLEAR SAFETY CULTURE PLANThe purpose of this Plan is to identify organizational andindividual characteristics and activities that confirm thatsafety matters are receiving appropriate, timelyconsideration. The Priority Action Group was launchedduring the year to identify relevant aspects, to quantifythe safety culture and establish an indicator, and to tutorImprovement Teams. Thirteen Areas of Improvementhave been identified and included in document INSAG-04, 10.04 Nuclepers-Unipede, 4 of which have beenundertaken in 1995:- Self-verification.- Technical communication in technical plant processes.- Influence of field supervision by the management onthe nuclear safety culture.- Recognition-award platform.REFUELING REDUCTION PROGRAM (ORE)As already mentioned previously, the objective of thisProgram is to perform alternating long and shortrefuelings lasting 40 and 20 days, respectively. In fact, inApril of this year we will carry out the first 20-dayrefueling, focusing the main activities on refueling plantand NSSS system and leaving the BOP until the longrefueling.STA. M. DE GAROÑA NPPFelipe GALÁN1995 has been the best year in the life of theSanta María de Garoña Nuclear Power Plant.The Plant stayed on line throughout the yearand achieved 502 days of uninterruptedoperation on 18 February 1996. On this date,it was disconnected to begin the refuelingoutage.We are satisfied and, excuse me for sayingso, proud to be able to say this when we areless than two weeks away from the datemarking the first 25 years of plant operation.All this would not have been possible without the jointeffort of the dedicated Nuclenor team, which I have thehonour of representing, and of many other companiesthat have collaborated with us, some of which areFACTOR DE CARGA(%) / CAPACITY FACTOR (%)1009080706050403020100dos semanas de que se cumplan los25 primeros años de explotación dela Central.Todo esto no hubiese sido posible sinel esfuerzo conjunto de un gran equipode personas de Nuclenor, a lasque me honro en representar, y deotras muchas empresas que han colaboradocon nosotros y de las quealgunas se encuentran hoyrepresentadas en esta sala.A todos ellos y a los queno estan, nuestro reconocimientoy gratitud.INCIDENCIASOPERATIVASLo más digno de menciónha sido precisamente la ausencia deincidencias importantes.El combustible se ha comportadomuy satisfactoriamente.FACTOR DE CARGA Y MEDIA RESULTANTE PROMEDIO CADA 2 AÑOSCAPACITY FACTOR AND RESULTING AVERAGED EVERY 2 YEARSFC ANUALMEDIA86 87 88 89 90 91 92 93 94 95 INPOObjetivo AvailabilityAÑOS/YEARSDisponibilidad ObjectiveINPO 1995 INPO 95RESUMEN DEL AÑO 1995/1995 SUMMARYOBJETIVOS/OBJECTIVES RESULTADOS/RESULTSOperación 95% FC 99,01% FCOperation 95% FL 99.01% FLDisparos
