[Global] Floor Drain Blockage

[Carswell, James A.]

After construction at Vogtle 1-2, we had concrete in several of our drains. We had to bring in an industrial cleaning service with some really high pressure hydrolasers (10,000 psi) to break up the concrete and clear the drains. We used Augusta Industrial Services, but I'm sure you have industrial services locally you could use.

Hello fellow ALARA Association members,
We here at Turkey Point Nuclear are reaching out to the group to see if any of you may have dealt with a clogged floor drain issue.
We have an issue in our upper elevations in our RCBs with floor drains being severely clogged.
The drain lines are rumored to potentially even have concrete in them.
Has anyone had success with hydro-lasing or used another method of clearing severely clogged drains?
If so, how where they cleaned etc.?

Any information would be greatly appreciated!

Thank you in advance and have a great day,

Duane
