Browns Ferry Unit-1 recoated the torus prior to start up.

 

All workers worn twin can respirators.

 

Air samples were saturated in two minutes - 0 Flow

 

No PCEs - but we deconned it to pretty low levels.

 

Metal shot will eat right through PC's if the blaster don't know what he
is doing he'll come out with his coveralls in shreds - be prepared to
put them in Double everything! Tape up around hood, respirator, sleeves
and booties really good. The metal shot doesn't eat at the duct tape as
bad.

 

Trick is here is to decon smearable down as low as you can get it.

 

We also put an AMS-4 at the manway entrance.

Subject: Powernet: Torus Re-lining Project Questions

 

Peach Bottom is relining their torus this upcoming outage and has a few
questions about the respiratory protection requirements.  Blasting will
be performed using metal shot.  

 

1.      What kind of respiratory equipment did your workers use who were
performing blasting activities?  (i.e. Sandblast helmet, MSA AbrasiBlast
hood, etc.)
2.      Did you experience significant increase in PCEs using hoods?
3.      Were there any safety issues with hoods or airlines?

 

Advice will be greatly appreciated.
