WIPP Using Up Lifelines When asked to answer nuclear questions. (horrible audio volume and a lot of buffering after 35 minutes). I can't believe WIPP hired Red Rocket to do their Audio/Visual for these meetings. I have YET to hear one of these town hall meetings were the microphones worked properly or were even turned ON in spots. That being said, you're probably better off to view this video on the original site on LiveStream tinyurl.com/zu2nsjb because when I taped the live meeting, my computer added an extra nearly half hour with one second buffering after approx. every four or five seconds beginning around 35 minutes into the lousy audio video here. I corrected the audio volume as much as I could, but the buffering would be too time consuming to edit out and undo here. Sorry.
Here's the link to the original upload on Livestream withOUT buffering (hopefully) but it still has HORRIBLE audio volume throughout the video. WIPP Townhall 6/2/16 tinyurl.com/zu2nsjb
ANYWAY.... here are some of the notes I jotted down along the way.
Documented Safety Analysis Revision 5
Safety basis process
understanding the facility
what is the process,
fires, snow, tornado, seismic event, flooding, lightning, deflagradation, waste falling down a shaft,
What kind of accidents can happen?
how can the accidents hurt the worker or public?
Salt with oil burning equipment not next to waste - plutonium waste.
Potential accidents above ground
what equipment or controls will protect the worker and public?
Heirarchy of controls
passive controls before active controls,
safety management programs
hepa filters
type B shipping containers and air monitors,
safety management programs
RADCON VOCs
the safety bacis documents
technical safety requirements
DSA
SAFETY ENVELOPE
HAZARD ANALYSIS
DSA workshop
watch your ears at 41:50
Participants NWP, CBFO, DOE-HQ, DOE-EA, DNFSB, NTP
accident investigation board issues
45:10 INEFFECTIVE NUCLEAR SAFETY PROGRAMS !
waste handling building fire supression system
vehicle barriers, interm ventilation system
facility pallet
type B shipping containers
conveyance controls
underground schematic new design features
bulkhead closure
vehicle fire suppression system
attendants vehicle checks
vehicle exclusion zone - lube
truck prohibition
safety basis improvements
agonizingly painful presentation to listen to (note to self)
58:40 Chapter 18 Waste acceptance criteria "won't receive waste like the last one that caused the accident before"
mine safety, ground control, DSA, living documents
new upgraded design features

1:05 NORBERT (who used to work at WIPP) asks great questions
mine is actually a NUCLEAR FACILITY, smoke nearly killed people, a serious cultural problem

ZERO CONFIDENCE IN WIPP!
MINE SAFETY AND NUCLEAR SAFETY NOT RESOLVED WITH DOE - FUNDAMENTAL TO SAFETY.

If your only tool is a hammer, then you are constantly looking for a nail. DSA VOCs

1:17 Mary asks Why they don't think a criticality is possible

1:24 Norbert asks follow up about truck fire, DSA implementation, cold operations

1:49 WIPP "TOOK SOME RISKS with TIME ... BUT IT PAID OFF"
TAKING RISK WITH ANYTHING down there is BAD NEWS.

Are safety chambers safely installed underground? NO

$Fukushima Ice Wall for Molten Nuclear Fuel & TEPCO~ BRAIN FREEZE ☠ Who believes that putting a FROZEN WALL around HOT MOLTEN NUCLEAR REACTOR FUEL (EX-VESSEL) - (in a multiple full meltdown scenario) will Stop the radioactive water from leaking into the Pacific ocean? The ground under the reactors is ALREADY SINKING and the reactors are sinking as well. The intersections of where the pipes go through the buildings canNot be frozen... Hence Slushy like a 7-11 slurpee - enough to give you a BRAIN FREEZE! The absurdity of the idea makes my brain hurt. The COST of Trying to maintain the frozen wall is PROHIBITIVE and must be frozen Indefinitely. Information gathered from the following (although there are Many more sources I could include).

In April, they began pouring chemical solutions into tunnels at the No.2 reactor. They hoped to freeze the water to stop it flowing out to the sea. But tests show the water remains above freezing temperature. Operator Tokyo Electric Power Company believes objects in the tunnels are preventing the coolant from spreading evenly. They also said running wastewater is slowing the process. They say they are planning to find ways to control the water currents and add pipes to pour in more coolant. They say they may not be able to complete the frozen barrier by the end of the month, and dry up the tunnel next month, as scheduled. They are trying the same process in a tunnel around the No.3 reactor. About 11,000 tons of wastewater is believed to be in tunnels at the two reactors. TEPCO hopes to remove wastewater from tunnels around all reactors in fiscal 2014. The utility also has to deal with groundwater flowing into the plant from nearby hillsides and mixing with contaminated materials. Workers have been creating a 1.5-kilometer underground wall of frozen soil surrounding all four damaged reactors.
