Accelerated Decom

Accelerated Decommissioning Partners (ADP) is a joint venture between NorthStar and Orano USA to decommission shutdown U.S. nuclear energy sites within 7 years.

@NRCgov Making accelerated decommissioning progress on a steady pace at #DecomCR3! #DecomDoneRight

[Accelerated Decom @ADPnuclear]

On your way back from a presentation in the #WMSym2022 Exhibit Hall, stop by the nearby @neimagazine booth and pick up the February issue with our Certainty ad and contact us about #DecomDoneRight.

Driving economic activity in the region and around the country, @WCS_Texas performs an important disposal role in accelerated decommissioning of nuclear reactors to clear and re-open sites for development. #DecomVY

[Waste Control Specialists @WCS_Texas]

#DYK that the WCS site in Andrews was selected due to its unique geological features and ideal climate? In fact, no significant erosion has taken place at the site for the past 60,000 years. Check out our latest video for a closer look at our one-of-a-kind facility.

[Accelerated Decom @ADPnuclear]

"@WCS_Texas considers itself a one-stop shop that can treat and dispose of hazardous materials. We are able to take in anything from #nuclear reactor vessels to bulk debris to contaminated soil." Top-quality site and service for #DecomVY. #DecomDoneRight

[Orano U.S. @Orano_usa]

@coolinscarlet @KwasiKwarteng New tech & processes enable accelerated decommissioning of shutdown nuclear reactors within 7 years, like our #DecomCR3 project in Florida. The challenge can be an available offsite destination for the stored used nuclear fuel to free the location for new economic development.

[Accelerated Decom @ADPnuclear]

Decommissioning a shutdown nuclear reactor is a complex, but clearly defined process with close oversight by @NRCgov--see details below. For examples of #DecomDoneRight, explore our progress at #DecomVY and #DecomCR3.

[NRC @NRCgov]

For #NRC #eLearning today take a look at our web site for information on the process for #decommissioning at #nuclear facilities. There you can learn the schedule, what’s involved and how an NRC license gets terminated. https://t.co/StOVRzU7tT

[Orano U.S. @Orano_usa]

"In anticipation of a possible nat'l campaign for commercial transportation of SNF to one or more CISFs, NRC conducted an in-depth holistic review of its regulatory programs and its readiness to perform its oversight role in the transportation campaign."

Good to have @NRCgov Lawson on-site while we get #DecomDoneRight with the accelerated decommissioning of Vermont Yankee’s nuclear reactor. #DecomVY

[Accelerated Decom @ADPnuclear]

Hanson @NRCgov: "You can put sheep on it, you can grow crops on it, you can turn it into a public park, whatever you want. We oversee all the [decommissioning] actions that licensees take with that end in mind. It’s a very hands-on process." #DecomDoneRight

[Benjamin S. Weiss @BenjaminSWeiss]

Hanson on the messaging around NRC's recently-approved decommissioning rule: "I’m worried that the public will be under the impression that when a reactor shuts down, not only does the licensee walk away, but the NRC walks away too. That’s really not the case."

[Accelerated Decom @ADPnuclear]

Along with reactor segmentation, the accelerated decommissioning of a shutdown #nuclear energy site requires careful, efficient demolition of structures. @CDRecycler takes a close look at our #DecomCR3 progress and #DecomDoneRight ...

@ClaudeImauven @Oranogroup @DE_Nuclear We appreciate your visit @ClaudeImauven to see firsthand our team's good progress at #DecomCR3. Expertise and #safetyfirst are how we ensure #DecomDoneRight for accelerated decommissioning.

[Accelerated Decom @ADPnuclear]

Reduce, re-use, recycle applies to nuclear reactor decommissioning, too!

[Orano U.S. @Orano_usa]

ICYMI, on #WorldArchitectureDay explore this @Architizer drawing showing the many ways to re-use material from decommissioning a nuclear reactor.

[Orano U.S. @Orano_usa]

"As residents and town officials ... we were impressed with not only the sheer quantity of the [decommissioning work at Vermont Yankee] completed so far, but also NorthStar's commitment to safety and professionalism ..."

Good #safety record = Good team, training, and technology. 10+ years secure #nuclear materials transport & storage @WCS_Texas. #safetyfirst

[Waste Control Specialists @WCS_Texas]

#DYK that WCS pre-approves each shipment prior to the waste arriving on site? In fact, waste has been arriving at our site for over a decade without any major safety or environmental issues. We are proud of our safety record and what we do. Learn more. https://t.co/ZSzOhaqGvL

[Waste Control Specialists @WCS_Texas]

WCS provides a one-stop location for treatment, storage & disposal of waste from critical industries across #Texas, including nuclear power plants, fuel cycle & industrial facilities, hospitals, & research centers. Learn more about us. https://t.co/vvDdn66hPd

[Accelerated Decom @ADPnuclear]

@HughMunro16 @AussieRock @MSMWatchdog2013 @mattjcan Pardon tag-in, but to update linked @NEI information ... more US shutdown reactor sites are opting for accelerated decommissioning = less than 12 yrs, similar to #DecomVY site and our #DecomCR3 at 7 yrs.

[Accelerated Decom @ADPnuclear]

@SuisseCrypto @TheGuySwann @AgoristView Pardon tag-in on your question ... In the US, funds to cover a nuclear reactor site's decom costs are collected during operations as part of electricity rates. Adv tech + processes = accelerated decom within 7-10 yrs. See #DecomCR3 #DecomVY, and https://t.co/7i6y1F96dp.

A #thread of significant statements in the NRC’s Final Environmental Impact Statement (FEIS) for @ISPnuclear consolidated interim storage facility (CISF) for used nuclear fuel (aka spent nuclear fuel—SNF) … from the Executive Summary:

[Accelerated Decom @ADPnuclear]

When a nuclear energy site has to come down, it must come down right, come down safe, and come down as planned. Good progress at #DecomVY.
#DecomDoneRight

[Orano U.S. @Orano_usa]

Long a distinctive sight, Yankee stack comes down:
"Demolition [of Vermont Yankee], which is on schedule, is expected to be completed by 2026, way ahead of Entergy Nuclear’s original timetable." @banner_news
