Diben yr Ymyriad

Roedd yr arolygiad hwn yn un o gyfres o arolygiadau a gynlluniwyd ar gyfer 2021/22, sy'n cael eu llywio gan strategaeth is-adran Tanwydd a Gwastraff Datgomisiynu ONR ( DFW).   

Ymyriadau a Gynhaliwyd gan ONR

Archwiliodd yr arolygiad hwn ddigonolrwydd trefniadau Magnox Limited (ML) a'u gweithredu ar safle Trawsfynydd er mwyn cydymffurfio ag Amodau Trwydded (LC): LC 23 (Rheolau gweithredu); LC 24 (Cyfarwyddiadau gweithredu); ac LC 25 (Cofnodion gweithredol).  Trafodais weithgareddau dymchwel arfaethedig Trawsfynydd, a chynllunio ar gyfer ymarfer brys y safle nesaf i'w weld gan ONR.  Cyfarfûm hefyd â chynrychiolwyr diogelwch safle Trawsfynydd.

Esboniad o'r Dyfarniad os na chaiff y System Ddiogelwch ei Barnu i fod yn Ddigonol

Amherthnasol.
