Integrated OversightSystematic Supervision of Nuclear Safety What is Nuclear Safety?
Nuclear SafetyIAEA-Definitions INSAG-12 Draft Safety Guide DS298 Safety Objectives • safety • nuclear safety • radiation safety • safety of radioactive waste management • safety in the transport of radioactive material • non-radiological aspects of safety general nuclear safety objective radiation protection objective technical safety objective
Nuclear SafetySwiss Definition nuclear safety = protection of man and environment from radiation hazards due to reactor operation fuel handling fuel storage radioactive waste processing radioactive waste storage transport of radioactive material by technical and organisational means
Structuring information on nuclear safetyBasic assumption definition of precautions nuclear safety implementation of precautions
Structuring information on nuclear safetyBasic assumption Requirements vs. Operational Experience nominal situation defined in documents actual situation observed in the plant

Structuring information on nuclear safety nominal situation defined in documents actual situation observed in the plant
Integrated OversightThe scale for assessing nuclear safety • 1 scale for all situations from normal operation to major accidents • Basis: International Nuclear Event Scale (INES) • Extension: Below Scale and Normal Operation
Integrated OversightInspection Results Every inspection result is assigned to the structure of the nuclear safety assessment system.
Integrated OversightReportable Events The contributing factors and effects of reportable events are assigned to the structure of the nuclear safety assessment system. 1 event = several rated aspects A V A V
Integrated OversightAdditional data (planned) plant modification proposals periodically reported operational experience (results of periodic testing and checking of systems and components, safety indicators)
