Furnace issues curtail processing
Early Saturday morning, issues arose with the Metal Parts Furnace (MPF) when a ton container (TC) became stuck between the MPF charge airlock and Zone 1. This required numerous entries to complete repairs to the MPF and move the TC safely back into Zone 1.
Alpha Crew performed the first entry early Saturday morning, and then Delta crew did “yeoman’s work” performing multiple entries throughout their shift, said Operations Manager Kim Jackson. The mechanics and operators who performed the entries did an exceptional job, she added. Jackson also credited the HAZMATteam (pictured above) and Demilitarization Protection Ensemble (DPE) Support Area (DSA) for performing backup duties and coordinating entries, and a “super job” by the Control Room in managing the MPF entries.
