Description / Abstract:
This International Standard provides criteria for emergency
preparedness and response to minimize consequences due to a nuclear
criticality accident. The criticality safety of operations are
evaluated in accordance with ISO 1709.
This International Standard applies to a site with one or more
facilities which might contain significant quantities and
concentrations of fissile material. The extent to which this
International Standard needs to be applied depends on the overall
criticality risk presented by the facilities at the site.
This International Standard does not apply to off-site transport
and transit storage of packages with fissile material.
This International Standard does not apply to sites with
operating nuclear power plants or to facilities with research
reactors which are licensed to become critical or near-critical,
provided that there are no operations with fissile material
external to the reactor for which a credible criticality accident
risk exists. This International Standard can be applied to such
sites and facilities in specific cases, if supported by site
management and by licensing authorities.
