The Blue Grass Chemical Agent detailed operational risk and safety analyses before allowing Destruction Pilot Plant project staff should evaluate the personnel to conduct maintenance activities in close proxim- SCWO process building design to ensure that the quality ity to operating SCWO reactors.

... The committee visited the FOAK tem contractor SCWO system operators and engineers, and test site during its first meeting and observed the control by the Blue Grass Chemical Agent Destruction Pilot Plant systems and spoke with the operators. The discussions and staff who shadowed the system contractor operators, will be observations indicated to the committee that training people preserved during the multiyear hiatus between equipment in the basic operation of the SCWO units will not be par delivery and systemization.

... SCWO system process equipment (e.g., reactor and systemization, during systemization, between systemiza and peripherals, compressor, and pumps) will be shipped to tion and operations, and for the integrated SCWO and WRS the Blue Grass Chemical Agent Destruction Pilot Plant and could forestall extended downtimes.
