Palo Verde requests information on the following: Palo Verde is currently planning upgrades to our remote monitoring capabilities. Presently, most of our efforts have been limited installations that are essentially "temporary" that is not considered a permanent plant modification. This is especially true for our efforts done in Containment Buildings during refueling outages where all equipment is brought in and then removed. Our "temporary" installations consist primarily of monitoring of filters and liquid radwaste tanks and components.
With that in mind, Palo Verde would like to know: 1. Have you installed any permanent infrastructure, e.g., fiber optics, coaxial cable, communications systems, etc., used to support remote monitoring efforts at your station? If yes, could you provide some additional information such as: * What buildings (e.g., Containment, Fuel, Auxiliary, Radwaste) if any have you installed permanent infrastructure to support remote monitoring equipment. A brief description such as: Aux Bldg, fiber run, limited access to certain rooms, etc. will suffice. * What was your cost range for all installations e.g., 10 to 20 million, it doesn't have to be too specific. 2. If no, do you have any plans to install permanent infrastructure to support remote monitoring in the future? Thanks, Seth. ********************************************************************** Seth J. Kanter, CHP, RRPT Sr. Health Physicist Palo Verde Nuclear Generating Station Mail Sta. 7397 5801 S.
