EXCEL created all of the 500+ TSTF travelers (generic changes to the Technical Specifications), including all risk-informed travelers. EXCEL also supports a number of Nuclear Energy Institute and Owners’ Group committees associated with TSTF travelers.
EXCEL’s professionals have experience in providing all facets of Technical Specification services. Consistent with ISTS Conversions / Upgrades, EXCEL has had extensive involvement with numerous nuclear utilities specifically in the area of either improving or amending the Technical Specifications to support continued operation.
EXCEL’s professionals have extensive on-site experience at all PWR utilities and all BWR utilities in the development of license amendment requests. This experience with other operating PWRs and BWRs provides a nuclear utility with a unique resource for Technical Specification activities. This experience also enables EXCEL to make customized strategic recommendations for traveler adoption oriented to the specific plant – increasing the client’s return on investment, and operational and licensing flexibility.
