Hey so a quick intro -

In 2021 I was denied pre-access unescorted access to a Nuke plant due to a failed drug test (I was denied in the pre-employment phase, so didn’t have the access, I was denied before I got it).

I do not have any legal/arrest case involving drugs or alcohol my record is spotless but I believe my denied access will be on PADS( please correct me if I am wrong). I am currently clean of all drugs basically and have been in grad school since then and now.

I recently got an offer for a full-time position at a different nuke power plant. I want to find out if to state this denial in my PHQ, if someone in this position was still able to get unescorted access and what my chances are of getting unescorted access again (assuming I admit to prior use in my PHQ)?

Note: I had held unescorted access prior to my denial for an internship which was favorably terminated.

This new position is an enterprise type position so I will be working with all the nuclear plants in the company’s fleet but I know I will have to get Unescorted access at some point.

PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE I know it is stupid to do weed when planning to be in the nuclear field and I have learned my lesson and I have had enough time to live with the consequences so PLEASE  just help me answer the question, no need to chastise.

Thanks in advance.

Coming Back / NUF Exam ????
« Last post by TerryKelley on Yesterday at 11:40 AM »
Trying to find out how to take NUF independently to prepare to RE-enter the RP 3.1 world. Haven't ever had to take it. 35 years as SR-RP/ALARA and then  into ES&H.

Retired and just want to work outages etc. Started in Business with Duke power HP school in early '80's.

Without NUF is there a qualified way to get accepted as SR 3.1 RP???

Holiday Greetings / Mothers day
« Last post by Marlin on May 12, 2024, 11:28 »
On this Mother's Day I was thinking about all the times I was thanked for my military service. I was uncomfortable with it and started saying thank you for being a citizen worth serving for. I was not better or more important than the ones thanking me. Most veterans come from solid families so without mothers we would not have many of our sailors and soldiers to serve. Maybe today we should tell our mothers thank you for your service. I am sure you will get a big hug.

Nuclear Operator / Re: BWR NUMAC RBM operator display bargraphs

Watts per cm2 is the answer.

In other words,

Rate of fission           =       Macroscopic Cross Section for Fission                x         Neutron Flux   

Units   WATTS           =        cm2                                                               x        n- cm/ cm3 sec

-----------------------Divide both sides by Macroscopic Cross Section--------------------------------

Watts per cm 2          =                                                                                    Neutron Flux

LPRMs measure neutron flux.

RBMs  a different instrument, average LPRMs nearest the selected rod and normalize it to roughly % local power for block enforcement.
