- STATEMENT OF WORK Corrosion and Corrosion Control in Light Water Reactors Background The Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC) is responsible for inspecting license holders who generate electrical power from light water reactors to determine whether operations are conducted in compliance with Federal regulations and license conditions and to identify conditions which might adversely affect the health and safety of the public, the environment, or the common defense and security. Also, the NRC is responsible for review and approval or denial of license changes. The office of Nuclear Reactor Regulation has determined that the current staff responsible for review of license changes and new actions related to component integrity requires training in corrosion and corrosion control in light water reactors. Contract Objective The purpose of this procurement is to obtain a course that will provide a practical familiarization with corrosion and corrosion control in light water reactors: 1. Corrosion in Boiling Water Reactor (BWR) internals and piping, 2. Corrosion in Pressurized Water Reactor (PWR) steam generators, 3. Corrosion in PWR control rod drive mechanisms, and 4. Corrosion caused by the use of boric acid. This course will be presented once in Fiscal Year 2008 with options for one additional course in FY 2008, up to two additional course presentations in FY 2009 and up to two course presentations in FY 2010.
