St. Lucie Nuclear Power Plant
The St. Lucie Nuclear Power Plant in St. Lucie,
Florida required secondary containment for scheduled maintenance and inspection
of the reactor head. They commissioned Flexible Containment Products of
Spokane, Washington to assist in the development and construction of a device
to capture and contain the wastewater that would result from the robotic
washing down of the reactor head. The project required shutting down the
plant and taking the reactor offline. It was imperative for everything to
operate according to plan.
FCP, working with St. Lucie Nuclear Power Plant custom designed a secondary
containment berm and liners for their maintenance efforts. The project demanded
extremely tight dimensions and a level of detail that permitted the liner
to properly fit around many intricate spaces. Using CAD technology, the
engineers at FCP and the Nuclear Facility created detailed plans of the
final product. Our Engineering Staff then designed the decontamination liner
based on those CAD drawings and sent them back to the facility for a final
inspection. The reactor head stand prior to decontamination.
Once the drawings were reviewed intensively, the final plans were sent to
our in-house production facility where the secondary contamination unit
was developed using state of the art cutting and welding technology.
Before shipping, our ISO 2001-9000 trained staff inspected the tolerances
ensuring both the precision and reliability of the final product. The decontamination
