Nuclear

The Dana Engineering team has extensive design, construction, startup, operations, maintenance and troubleshooting experience at naval nuclear, commercial nuclear, and Department of Energy nuclear facilities.  Dana Engineering has substantial experience conducting reviews and oversight of engineering processes and procedures.  We have also established a niche providing high-end engineering support in high-risk industries. 

 

The foundation of our Dana Engineering team is supported by a strong and diversified nuclear background of our employees.  The following are examples of Dana Engineering employees’ nuclear experience and expertise:

 

  • Served on advisory committees for compliance based assessment of training of QA personnel at commercial nuclear power plants,
  • Served on several INPO and EPRI committees associated with reactor water chemistry, nuclear training and radioactive waste management
  • Participated in the implementation and assignment of code cases
  • Served on advisory committees for compliance based assessment of training of QA personnel at commercial nuclear power plants
  • Supported organizing and technical program committees of national and international technical meetings
  • Designed commercial nuclear power plants with Bechtel and Sargent & Lundy
  • Assisted the Ukrainian nuclear industry in developing a lessons learned program
  • Made regulatory reviews and presentations to the Nuclear Regulatory Commission 
  • Awarded a Vice President “Hammer Award”  for improving efficiency at DOE Hanford
  • Served as members on the Operational Readiness Review Board (ORR) and led ORR efforts for Chemical Demilitarization projects

 

Dana Engineering employees’ nuclear experience and knowledge is broad based, working per regulations contained in U.S. Title 10 of the Code of Federal Regulations.  For example, the three Principals in Dana Engineering (see “Management” in this website) total approximately 60 years, averaging approximately 20 years nuclear experience per person.  Simply put, we have “been there, done that” when it comes to nuclear plant design, construction, startup, operations, decontamination, fuel storage and decommissioning.  Dana Engineering Principals have attained SRO certifications (Senior Reactor Operator) at an operating nuclear power plant.
