Radiation protection and acceptance criteria

In order to achieve the three safety objectives given in paras 2.2-2.5 in the design of a nuclear installation, all actual and potential sources of radiation shall be identified and properly considered, and provision shall be made to ensure that sources are kept under strict technical and administrative control. [Pg.12]

Measures shall be provided to ensure that the radiation protection and technical safety objectives as given in paras 2.4 and 2.5 are achieved, and that radiation doses to the public and to site personnel in all operational states, including maintenance and decommissioning, do not exceed prescribed limits and are as low as reasonably achievable. [Pg.12]

The design shall have as an objective the prevention or, if this fails, the mitigation of radiation exposures resulting from design basis accidents and selected severe accidents. Design provisions shall be made to ensure that potential radiation doses to the public and the site personnel do not exceed acceptable limits and are as low as reasonably achievable. [Pg.12]

Plant states that could potentially result in high radiation doses or radioactive releases shall be restricted to a very low likelihood of occurrence, and it shall be ensured that the potential radiological consequences of plant states with a signifieant likelihood of occurrence shall be only minor. Radiological acceptance criteria for the design of a nuclear power plant shall be speeified on the basis of these requirements. [Pg.12]
