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 Datgomisiynu Tanwydd a Gwastraff (DFW) ONR.

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'r Drwydded (LC): LC 22 (Addasu neu arbrofi ar y peiriannau); LC 26 (Rheoli a goruchwylio gweithrediadau); ac LC 28 (Archwilio, arolygu, cynnal a chadw a phrofi).  Trafodais reolaeth Trawsfynydd ar faterion rheoleiddio, atodlen reoleiddio, a chynllunio ar gyfer yr adolygiad rhanbarthol blynyddol nesaf o gyfarfod diogelwch, diogeledd a'r amgylchedd.

Esboniad o'r Dyfarniad os na Fernir bod y System Ddiogelwch yn Ddigonol

Amherthnasol

Canfyddiadau Allweddol, Barn yr Arolygydd a'r Rhesymau dros Ddyfarniadau a Wnaed

Yn seiliedig ar y dystiolaeth a archwiliwyd, fy marn i yw bod ML yn gweithredu trefniadau ar gyfer cydymffurfio ag LC 22, 26 a 28 yn Nhrawsfynydd yn effeithiol.

Casgliad yr Ymyriad

Barnais fod gweithrediad Trawsfynydd o'i drefniadau LC22, 26 a 28 yn ddigonol yn y meysydd a arolygwyd ac ni nodwyd unrhyw bryderon rheoleiddiol o ganlyniad i'r arolygiad hwn.
