IAEA – SEISMIC SAFETY

THE INTERNATIONAL SEISMIC SAFETY CENTRE (ISSC)

Enhancing the Seismic Safety of Nuclear Installations

The ISSC has been established within the IAEA Department of Nuclear Safety and Security as a global focal point on seismic safety for nuclear installations worldwide

September 2008

LAUNCHING THE ISSC – 52 GC

• IAEA 52nd Regular Session of the General Conference 2008 -Director General, M. ElBaradei, Statement – “IAEA AT A CROSSROADS”:“ . . . The Agency is proud to celebrate the 50th Anniversary

of the IAEA Safety Standards programme. We continue to upgrade our safety standards, including addressing threats to nuclear installations from extreme natural hazards such as volcanoes and tsunamis. In response to increasing Member States’ concerns, we established an International Seismic Safety Centre, which will pool expert knowledge and assist nuclear operators and regulators in the aftermath of major seismic events. . .”

ISSC – BACKGROUND

• Seismic safety of nuclear installations is a subject that has received substantial attention at the IAEA within the frame of its statutory functions, and of the corresponding programmatic projects, for establishing safety standards and assisting member states for its application.

ISSC – BACKGROUND

• From the inception of the nuclear safety standards in the 1970s, both areas i.e.

• (a) the seismic hazard evaluation at a site and

• (b) the seismic design, seismic qualification and seismic re-evaluation and upgrading of structures, systems and components of nuclear power plants

have been treated in a scientific and detailed manner based on the experience of and the consensus between MSs in its treatment.

7

ISSC – BACKGROUND

• The IAEA safety guides have been revised three times during last 35 years and a new revision process started recently.

A new safety guide on the seismic safety evaluation of existing nuclear installations is in the publication stage (DS383) and the current safety guide on seismic hazard assessment (NS-G-3.3) is presently under revision process (as DS422).

8

ISSC – BACKGROUND

• These IAEA safety standards have matured with time and with invaluable feedback from a very large number of advisory and review services . Now they are documents that are referred to by a majority of our MSs.

• These seismic safety review services started in the beginning of the 1980s and more than 100 were implemented to date for new nuclear installations and for safety upgrading of existing ones.

» At the site selection phase (siting),

» At the site evaluation phase

» During operation.

ISSC – BACKGROUND

• Recently seismic matters are paid more attention owing to the occurrence of strong earthquakes that have affected nuclear power plants beyond their original design levels, impacting on the operation, economics and public credibility of these installations.

Earthquake Effects at the Plant: Fire at in-house (non-safety) electrical transformer

The fire was extinguished after 2 hours. The fire was extinguished after 2 hours.

What we’ve learned from recent strong earthquakes?

• Consequences: Impacts on safety and non-safety related systems Damages to structures, equipment and

infrastructure (roads, fire fighting system) Seismically induced internal fire and flood Public concern – Response to the emergency

• Vibratory ground motions beyond the original design levels: >>SL-2 earthquake level.

• Realistic assessment of seismic margins. Earthquake experience data.

• Increased attention on findings and lessons, particularly, for new NPP projects and for “newcomers”.

OTHER EXTERNAL EVENTS

• AIRCRAFT CRASH – 9/11

• INDIAN OCEAN TSUNAMI – December 2004

• HURRICANES

• TORNADOES

• VOLCANIC ERUPTIONS

15

ISSC – BACKGROUND

• Owing to the complexity of these multidisciplinary problems they should be resolved using the experience and contribution of the whole related international scientific community as well as sharing the lessons learned in order to avoid or mitigate the consequences of such extreme natural events.

16

ISSC – OBJECTIVES

The objectives of the ISSC are:

1. Enhance seismic safety of nuclear installations –new and existing- in Member States;

2. Help in the development, revision and improvement of related safety standards;

3. Pool expert knowledge and assist nuclear operators and regulators in the aftermath of major seismic events;

4. Promote knowledge sharing among the international nuclear community.

17

When strong earthquake happens, Monitoring System will give a warning on screen and will show NPP sites nearby the earthquakes and list them according to the criteria. The system will be a web based online monitoring system.

The information obtained from the system will be used for further assessment of the NSNI/ISSC.

Monitoring System will also generate an automatic e-mail and SMS massage and send to relevant persons.
