Why Nuclear?

• Clean-Air Electricity• Proven Technology • Cost Effective Baseload Generation• Good for Our Communities

Page 6: AREVA Nuclear Plat Presentations

Clean–Air Energy

• Zero emission generation- currently produces 20 percent of our nation’s electricity

• Value of Environmental Benefits — annually the 104 nuclear plants in the U.S. save …– 1 million short tons of nitrogen oxides and 3.1

million short tons of sulfur dioxide = taking more than 51 million passenger cars off the road!

– 681 million metric tons of carbon dioxide. Almost as much as is released from all U.S. passenger cars!

Page 7: AREVA Nuclear Plat Presentations

Proven Technology

• Today’s nuclear plants are safe and reliable

• Over 3 decades of commercial nuclear power experience

• New plant technology builds on what we operate today– evolutional, not revolutional

Page 8: AREVA Nuclear Plat Presentations

Cost Effective Baseload Generation

• Nuclear provides about 20 percent of our US electricity needs today

• Need for power- additional 260 gigawatts by 2030

• High & volatile natural gas prices• Increasing cost of coal/transportation• Average nuclear production costs have declined

more than 30 percent in the last 10 years

Page 9: AREVA Nuclear Plat Presentations

Good for Our Communities!

• Annually an average nuclear plant generates …– jobs in our communities!– $430 million in sales of goods and services in the local

community – nearly $60 million in total labor income– total state and local tax revenue of almost $20 million to

benefit schools, roads, and other state and local infrastructure– although not a local benefit, federal tax payments of roughly

$75 million• Every dollar spent by the average nuclear plant results in the

creation of $1.07 in the local community • Nuclear plant employees give back to their communities!

Carolinas Nuclear Cluster

• New Carolina– South Carolina’s Council on Competitiveness

• 22 leading companies and institutions across NC and SC

• One of 18 active cluster committees• Carolinas Nuclear Cluster focused on:

– Workforce– Public policy– Economic development

Licensing & Construction Then and Now

Plant designed before construction beginsDesign as you build

More opportunities to intervene at well-defined points in process. Intervention at the end of the process must be based on objective evidence that acceptance criteria, defined in the license, have not been, and will not be met

Main opportunity public intervention when plant is essentially complete

Lessons learned from overseas projectsModular construction practices

Inefficient construction practices

Standard NRC-certified designs – 70+% StandardNo design standardization

More stable process: NRC approves site, design, construction & operation before construction begins and significant capital is placed “at risk”

Changing regulatorystandards and requirements

US Commercial Outlook to 2020

• First 4 – 8 plants expected to start commercial operations in 2016– Others under construction– Building rate and projects adjusted based on

the success of the first few projects

• Potential for new plants – 15 - 20 in 2020; 35+ in 2030– If first projects are successful

Page 17: AREVA Nuclear Plat Presentations

Equipment & Commodities for First Eight Plants (Examples)

• Control & power cable – over 1800 miles• Nuclear grade valves -- Over 11,000 • Pumps -- 1400 to 2200 • Nuclear grade piping – 30 – 150 miles• Concrete – over 3 million cubic yds• Electrical components -- Over 700,000• Structural & reinforcing steel -- 500,000 tons

approx.• Large and small heat exchangers -- 500 to 1300 • Fasteners -- 320,000

Page 18: AREVA Nuclear Plat Presentations

Support for New Nuclear & Expanded US Manufacturing Base• Bipartisan political support• Strong public support• Solid support from labor• Strong support from other industries• Growing support from environmental

community– Increasing concern about carbon emissions

Page 19: AREVA Nuclear Plat Presentations

The Future

• New nuclear power plants will be built– Need for power, environmental limitations and

need for long-term stability in electricity prices

• Strong policymaker support– High potential for incentives for US

manufacturing sector

• Opportunity is there -- will US-based manufacturers be able to take advantage?

NEI Manufacturing Outreach Workshop Columbia, SC. March 27, 2008 

 Good morning. I would like to thank the Nuclear Energy Institute for providing me the opportunity to share with you some insights on the impact of commercial nuclear quality assurance on suppliers of nuclear components, materials and services. My presentation will focus on discussing what is required to supply nuclear qualified, safety related components. Some aspects of my discussion are equally applicable for components or materials that are considered balance-of- the-plant. 

I am employed by Babcock & Wilcox Nuclear Operations Group, Inc., a wholly owned subsidiary of The Babcock & Wilcox Companies.   The Babcock & Wilcox Company, also known as B&W, was formed in 1867 by Stephen Wilcox and George Babcock. Eleven years earlier, in 1856, Stephen Wilcox patented the water tube boiler. This invention provided for the rapid development of a commercial supply of electricity and was a major factor in the industrial revolution. Ever since the early days, B&W has been a leader in the design and manufacture of power generation equipment. In the 1940’s the Company participated in research projects aimed at developing viable nuclear power systems for naval applications and in the 1950’s participated in the design and manufacture of the power system for the world’s first nuclear powered submarine, the USS Nautilus. In 1956 the Company designed and built the first privately licensed commercial Critical Experiment Laboratory and began operations at the Lynchburg Research Center, the first privately financed US nuclear facility. In 1962 we designed and furnished reactor systems for the first commercial reactor using Highly Enriched Uranium 233. B&W was a major supplier of reactor equipment and steam generators from the 1960’s and into the 1980’s when a substantial portion of today’s North American commercial nuclear power generation capacity was developed. Today the Company serves a broad spectrum of energy related markets and continues our 50 plus year record as a premier designer and manufacturer of heavy equipment and fuel for nuclear systems. Notably, B&W is the only North American company to continuously manufacture nuclear steam generators for the industry since the 1950s. B&W has supplied the nuclear industry with over 1,300 large, heavy‐walled vessels worldwide. With dedicated manufacturing operations in the U.S. and Canada, B&W has the skills, knowledge base and infrastructure for fabricating pressure vessels, reactors, steam generators, heat exchangers, drive mechanisms, and other auxiliary equipment. Though many nuclear businesses lost their manufacturing proficiency as a result of the decline in the commercial nuclear market, B&W kept its sites operational by strategically using its capabilities to develop products for the government as well as other customers. 

Our long history allows us to share with you a solid perspective of how to successfully operate in an industry that requires a high level of discipline in all related activities. The design, manufacture, construction and operation of commercial nuclear power plants are highly regulated activities. Properly executed, these activities provide a highly reliable, safe, clean and affordable source of commercial power. Properly managed these can also 

Page 35: AREVA Nuclear Plat Presentations

 

provide substantial financial returns for those that choose to participate. Properly led, society as a whole will benefit. 

In order to qualify as an “N” stamp supplier of equipment and services to the commercial nuclear market requires implementation of a quality assurance program that meets the requirements of ASME Section III, Subsection NCA, Article NCA‐4000 and NQA‐1. Additionally, NRC 10 CFR Part 50 Appendix B provides the regulatory framework for quality assurance for the licensing of production and utilization of nuclear facilities and any components, equipment, materials, or other goods or services, that relate to a licensee's or applicant's activities . The NRC endorses NQA‐1‐1983 in regulatory guide 1.28. NQA‐1 is the only US standard specifically developed for commercial nuclear quality assurance. The standard reflects industry experience and the current understanding of the quality assurance requirements necessary to achieve safe, reliable and efficient use of nuclear power. NQA‐1 covers eighteen specific quality assurance requirements including items such as design control, control of purchased items and control of special processes, inspection, quality assurance records and audits.  

These standards are focused on meeting the overall requirements necessary to ensure the safe use of nuclear power and as a result substantially increase the burden on nuclear suppliers as compared to generic quality assurance standards such as ISO 9001. In a November 2002 letter to the NRC, ASME provided its perspective on the use of ISO 9001 as a replacement to the 10 CFR Part 50 Appendix B and NQA‐1 requirements. ASME cautioned that although ISO 9001 may be initially appealing, ISO 9001 is a management or process standard and not a safety related standard. Requirements in NQA‐1 are more definitive than ISO 9001 in areas such as design controls, independence of design verification, software controls, configuration control, audits and training, qualification and evaluation of personnel.  

No other industry is more scrutinized or contested by the public than nuclear power. In Joseph Rees’s book titled “Hostages of Each Other, the Transformation of Nuclear Safety since Three Mile Island” the Institute of Nuclear Power Operations’ board of directors chairman was quoted as stating “Each licensee is a hostage of every other licensee”. In the US a single catastrophic failure at any nuclear power plant would destroy the entire nuclear industry and undermine any public support of nuclear power. We have all read newspaper accounts of nuclear facilities where lapses in values have resulted in potential equipment or system failures, and each of these events resulted in an increase in the negative perception by the public, not to mention the risk of a significant nuclear accident. As a nuclear supplier, quality and compliance to requirements cannot be comprised.  

  

In making a decision about participating as a nuclear supplier one must first fully recognize the significance of the responsibility that must be accepted and the potential consequences of failure to properly execute, manage and lead. Seemingly minor failures can ultimately lead to dire consequences with devastating potential. The primary mission of those 

Page 36: AREVA Nuclear Plat Presentations

 

engaged in this industry must be to safeguard the public, the environment, the national security, the international relations, the employees and the investors alike. Such a responsibility suggests that only those truly committed to excellence should apply.    

Proper execution and management of all activities depend first and foremost on leadership. Although leadership can be described or defined in many different ways, effective leadership results in an organization which reflects the values and commitment of its leaders. Leadership establishes the principles under which the organization will behave. Leadership determines the minimum standards which will be accepted by the organization. Leadership establishes the clarity of the direction in which the organization will move and the pace at which it will travel. 

In the commercial nuclear industry effective leadership is essential to assure that the mission is always known, understood, embraced and accomplished. Our experience suggests that there are number of essential characteristics that effective leaders must possess in this business. Their behavior will always demonstrate ownership and personal accountability. Their behavior will further demonstrate that: 

They do what is right even when it hurts; they place the success of the mission ahead of personal, financial or other goals. 

They passionately pursue, promote and expect continuous improvement and a relentless pursuit of excellence of their operations. 

They recognize that humans are fallible and even the best err; they promote organizational structures, systems, procedures and behavior that defend against error and minimize the effects of error. 

They value diversity of thought and welcome dissenting opinions as they seek to understand the basis and what is meant not just what is said.  

They encourage identification of organizational and system weaknesses and promote the reporting of non conformance.  

They nurture a culture that is open to oversight and critique recognizing that this is a key element in the pursuit of excellence. 

They devote resources necessary to assure that specification requirements are known and understood.  

They place high value on training and development and recognize that the success of the organization and the accomplishment of the mission is a function of the education, experience, talent and dedication of the individuals involved.  

They are intolerant of behavioral choices that do not comply with these requirements. 

Page 37: AREVA Nuclear Plat Presentations

 

They do not tolerate normalization of deviation and act to ensure that complacency does not take root.  

And finally, they exhibit and demand the highest level of integrity in word and action. 

In a moment I will move on to some more tangible aspects of operating in the commercial nuclear environment. Before I do however I want to acknowledge that the leadership characteristics that I have discussed are ones that most would agree should be common tenets of leadership regardless of the mission. However, most individual and organizational failures do not rise to the same level of potential consequence. If one chooses to participate in the nuclear arena, one must be fully prepared to provide this type of leadership; anything less is to ignore the mission.  

Now, I would like to provide you with some specifics needed to effectively operate in the commercial nuclear industry. The first area I would like to discuss in more detail is the infrastructure needed to support a commercial nuclear quality assurance program. 

The quality assurance organization which supports the construction of commercial nuclear products must be independent from, and have equal authority to the design and manufacturing organizations.  A nuclear industry quality system is driven by the Quality Manual which defines the delineation of roles and responsibilities at the highest levels of the organization.  The Quality Manual is a requirement of the ASME Code and converts the Code and NQA‐1 requirements into your organization’s quality system.  The Quality Manual requires approval by an independent authorized nuclear inspection agency, such as Hartford Steam Boiler.  Once the Quality Manual is in place, the high level roles and responsibilities must be further broken down into policies, procedures, and work instructions that direct and control the day‐to‐day activities required to design, manufacture, inspect, and ship components. 

 

A strong and well‐constructed quality system will not succeed without developing a culture that consciously designs and manufactures your product with quality at the forefront of all activities and decisions.  Simply having a quality control department that inspects and tests product features will not achieve the quality levels demanded by the commercial nuclear industry.  The quality focus must be integrated into all activities every minute of every day.  A quality conscious culture must also encourage and accept a questioning attitude and open communication throughout your organization.  Each of your employees must feel they can speak up with a dissenting view, quality concern or error without fearing reprisal. 

 

Page 38: AREVA Nuclear Plat Presentations

 

A commercial nuclear based quality system must establish strong controls to meet the stringent requirements for document development, document control, and retention of documents and records.  The document control system must address both the generation of the original document and the control of subsequent revision of the documents to design, manufacture, inspect, and test your product. Traceability of a specific activity to a specific revision level of documents is paramount to a successful quality system.  Detailed record keeping and configuration management are fundamental to the successful operation of your business.  Quality records document nearly all phases of production including the design, material procurement, fabrication and testing.  Without proper certification, a piece of material is rendered useless.  Detailed fabrication travelers follow each production component and document signoffs at each stage of the production and inspection phase.  All testing operations require test plans and test reports.  A major component can easily generate in excess of 10,000 pages of quality records.   Additionally, a records retention system must be established to retain the records as required by contract. Some typical documents requiring such controls are the Code Design Data package, procurement documents, manufacturing documents and records, and inspection and test results.   

 

When product deviations or deficiencies occur, the quality system has to be structured to thoroughly evaluate and document the impact of the deficiency as well as capture and disseminate lessons learned from the deficiency.  Commercial nuclear quality systems require technical evaluation of the deviated condition, identification of cause and corrective action for the condition, and preventive actions to avoid future recurrence of the condition.  Follow up actions to determine the effectiveness of corrective actions are also a key element of the quality system.  Trending of deficiencies along with cause and corrective action data becomes a tool for your continuous improvement program. 

 

The commercial nuclear industry imposes stringent requirements for the qualification of personnel performing inspection and testing activities.  For example, to qualify as a level II radiographer requires upwards of 600 hours of documented experience over three years in addition to minimum training requirements and qualification testing. Not only must your personnel be qualified to strict industry standards, but maintenance and possible requalification of those personnel are also required.  The maintenance of personnel qualifications can be demonstrated by performing the qualified inspection or test during a defined time frame or requalification is required.  Level 3 Examiners must be developed to administer the qualification of Level 1 and Level 2 personnel.  The Examiner also has duties to perform periodic overchecks of the Level 1 and Level 2 qualified personnel.  The number 

Page 39: AREVA Nuclear Plat Presentations

 

of available people with commercial nuclear NDE experience is limited which may require you to sublet some or all of your NDE until documented experience is obtained by your employees.  Similar to personnel qualification, a formal gage management system is needed to manage calibration and usage of gages and tools used for acceptance inspections and tests.  

In his book Quality Without Tears, Phil Crosby postulates that “quality is free” and zero defects are achievable.  While this philosophy is true, the quality system to support commercial nuclear design and construction is NOT free.  The staffing level and infrastructure for a nuclear industry quality system must be larger in number, well‐trained, and more technically qualified than a comparable quality assurance organization for a non‐nuclear facility.       

The second area I will discuss with you in more detail is the human resources side of your organization. Even with a commercial nuclear quality system, your ultimate success in the commercial nuclear market will come down to the people in your organization and their willingness to embrace and implement the changes I am outlining to you today.  

 As most companies are acutely aware, skilled craftsmen and engineering professionals are becoming harder to find and it is expected that this shortage will worsen as the baby boom generation starts to retire in large numbers. Retaining your current employees will become a challenge as companies start competing for the available talent. Probably the most significant challenge you will face is staffing your company to support your nuclear quality assurance system. We are already experiencing this competition for human resources today and the commercial nuclear renaissance is still in its infancy.   A successful nuclear quality assurance system must have a strong and extensive training program.  In addition to initial employee process and qualification training, recurrent mandatory training that includes reiteration of the company’s quality culture, values and employee expectations must be incorporated into the program. The value of this recurring training cannot be overstated in maximizing your long term success in this business. Each employee must be acutely aware of the consequences of noncompliance and substandard workmanship in your products.  Incorporation of lessons learned from other critical component failures or near misses such as the NASA Challenger Launch Decision, Davis Bessie Reactor Head Corrosion Incident, as well as others should be incorporated into your training programs to provide real world examples of how even  highly regulated and controlled operations are not immune to failure and can have disastrous consequences. Each person in your organization must feel they are personally responsible for the quality 

Page 40: AREVA Nuclear Plat Presentations

 

of their work and the product your organization supplies to the commercial nuclear industry.  Quality concerns must be promptly investigated and formal documented responses should be provided to the employee raising a concern.  And legitimate concerns must be quickly and formally addressed while the reporting of errors must be positively recognized in order to reinforce and ingrain the desired nuclear quality assurance culture.  And finally, I would like to provide you with some insights to barriers that can impede your success. For a company entering into the commercial nuclear market, it is critical to understand the barriers that must be overcome on the path to becoming a commercial nuclear component, material or service supplier. 

 In order to be successful in the commercial nuclear supplier environment, all sectors of the business must have a solid understanding of the requirements that their organizations must meet.  These requirements which have been previously discussed may easily exceed 10,000 pages of text including administrative, regulatory and technical requirements.  It is therefore critical to establish key organizations and key staffing to understand the body of requirements.  Understanding the requirements imposed by the contract and the regulations is the key to compliance.  The understanding of requirements must permeate throughout your organization, beginning with the proposal process, carrying through material procurement, fabrication, testing and acceptance by the customer and concluding with contract closeout and records retention.     Proceeding with a “Business As Usual” culture is a sure fire way to find your business wounded in a mine field.   Countless pitfalls exist; to illustrate my point is the simple breaking of a fluorescent light bulb in the manufacturing shop. In a nuclear quality assurance system this breakage may bring your production process to a halt due to concerns with mercury contamination.  Recovery can involve costly testing programs to prove the component has not been degraded or worse yet the solution may be to scrap and replace the item.  In most other industries the breakage of a fluorescent bulb would not get a second thought relative to component quality. 

    

Both of these barriers have highlighted the importance of providing resources to support the increased overhead requirements.  There is significant investment required in human capital to design and implement the systems and controls required to successfully design and construct nuclear components.  Do not underestimate the need for people as you enter into this business. In your drive to succeed and to meet your financial and production goals caution must be exercised in trying to do more with less so as to not compromise product quality and requirement compliance. 

Page 41: AREVA Nuclear Plat Presentations

 

  With quality paramount in this business, another barrier to success is oppression of communications.  When production or quality issues arise, management must exercise great care in their reaction to the issue.  If the reaction is one of anger, blaming, and negativity, it can promote a culture of oppression and secrecy which is highly counterproductive.  Management must therefore strive to resist blaming and punishment and seek to understand the underlying reasons why things have gone awry.  Failures should be viewed as milestones to strength rather than opportunities for punishment.    Another potential pitfall that your business may experience is a gap between what the written procedure states and what actually occurs in the execution of day‐to‐day activities.  This is known as the “work as perceived versus the work as performed gap”. Open communications and gaining employee input during development of the quality system can reduce this gap.  Ongoing involvement of your management team in the daily activities can also be used to reduce this gap and insure procedure compliance. At Toyota, where their quality is world renowned this process is known as “genchi genbutsu” which means “go and see “. 

 As a goal, authority should be pushed down to the lowest practical level of the organization.   If one places the responsibility for a process or product with an individual process owner, then the authority to change and improve that process should also be granted.    And finally, I would recommend that your organization consider using Human Performance Improvement techniques developed by INPO, the Institute of Nuclear Power Operations, to help you reduce the number of errors as you develop and implement your nuclear quality system. These techniques can be used to identify error likely situations, and latent organizational weaknesses which can lead to human errors. INPO has successfully utilized Excellence in Human Performance principles in the commercial nuclear industry to drive down the annual average significant events since INPO’s inception in 1978 to levels previously thought unattainable.   In closing, I would encourage your organization to take advantage of the opportunities that will develop as the nuclear energy renaissance grows. The commitment to developing the systems and staff to meet the demands of a commercial nuclear supplier cannot be overstated. Leadership, culture and values cannot be changed overnight, and there are no shortcuts. Your leadership team and employees must be committed for the long term.   

Page 42: AREVA Nuclear Plat Presentations

 

However, when properly developed and implemented, the combination of solid systems and talented, trained staff will increase the likelihood of your success as a nuclear component, material or service supplier.

Westinghouse Challenge….

Transition from “Design” to “Delivery”

Page 103: AREVA Nuclear Plat Presentations

“Can the Supply Chain Support the Nuclear Renaissance?”

Answer: “Yes”If

• As an Industry, we address macro level issues in support of the Nuclear Renaissance including both New Plant Builds and Existing Plant Life Extensions

• We identify and mitigate potential constraints in the supply chain early

Page 104: AREVA Nuclear Plat Presentations

Supply Chain ChallengesHigh Level Concerns

• The US Commercial Nuclear Industry is competing for limited domestic manufacturing capacity with:

– Fossil Fuel– Petrochemical– Aerospace– DOD

• Does the supply chain consider the renaissance real?

• The risk and cost of investment for suppliers must be addressed

Page 105: AREVA Nuclear Plat Presentations

Summary• Make the US Commercial Nuclear Industry the

“customer of choice” for critical suppliers– A balanced sharing of cost, risk, and benefit

• Communicate to the supply chain, the enormous gain to be realized by the nuclear renaissance and acknowledge and deal with the risk and cost at all levels of the supply chain

• Owners, A/Es, NSSS Suppliers, and industry organizations must demonstrate an unwavering commitment to Nuclear Energy
